Dr. George Betts... (Under Construction)

Side note: A rather nice guy who does really mean things to people who never actually did anything wrong. People who were betrayed by one of their best friends on the last day of camp and henceforth are pretty much blacklisted from returning for the Leadership Enrichment Program. Even if said person is a 6 year veteran and is loved by everyone :)

[edit] Young Child Program

The Young Child Program is designed for gifted and talented children from age 4 till the 4th grade. It is a day camp founded in 1980 preceding the Summer Enrichment Program.
