It’s hot and muggy, and the afternoon storms have started popping up. We know summer has arrived. Schools are starting to let out for summer vacation, and that means a lot of students are wondering what they’ll spend their summer doing. We’ve put together a quick list of computer and IT-related summer camps that we’ve heard about recently. Forgive us – this is not an exhaustive list by any means! If you know of more, please let us know!
