Openings are still available at all age levels for this year’s edition of Camp Blue Sky, an annual fine arts camp for students in preschool through eighth grade.
This year’s camp runs Aug. 1-5 at State Fair Community College. Barbara Cooney, a founder and organizer of the camp, said, “There is a limit on openings, but we’re not there yet.” Scholarships also are available for those who need financial assistance.
