Summer Camps

In partnership with the Justice Theater Project, the Emily K Center hosts two weeks of drama camp each summer. Open to rising second through ninth graders, campers will work with professional theater instructors and study acting, stage movement, dance, and production. At the end of the camp, students stage a full production for family and friends. This year, campers will be working on story theatre productions.

Each summer, the Emily K Center partners with CJ Wilson Hoops Academy to host a one-week basketball camp. Open to boys and girls who will enter grades two through nine in the fall of 2021, this camp focuses on building core basketball skills while also allowing time for scrimmages, games, and fun competitions. The camp culminates with a tournament on the final day. Each camper receives a Nike camp T-shirt and lunch daily as part of their registration fee. Traditionally, campers have also had the chance to hear from members of Duke University’s men’s and women’s basketball teams, as they visit to talk with campers and sign autographs.

Please note there will NOT be a basketball camp during summer 2021. We hope to be back for summer 2022!

A limited number of partial scholarships are available to qualifying campers. To access the scholarship application, please visit our registration website here. As part of the registration process, you will be able to select ‘scholarship application.’
