Athens, GA - (March 5, 2007) - The University of Georgia (UGA) Center for Continuing Education is currently accepting enrollments for the 2007 Summer Academy at UGA (SAUGA). SAUGA is a popular series of academically-focused summer day camps designed to keep the minds and bodies of 10- to 17-year-olds active during summer break. Camps begin the week of June 4, 2007, and are held at the Georgia Center, 1197 S. Lumpkin St., Athens, Ga.
Since 2001, SAUGA has enriched the summers of more than 300 campers and has provided fun instructional activities in a wide range of subjects. Programs are divided into one and two-week sessions. Space is limited, and pre-registration is required.
This year's camps include DAWGWarts, a Harry Potter-themed camp in which students will learn more about science and chemistry in "Potions" class, exercise in the "Quidditch" class, and learn magic tricks in the "Magic" class. Other popular camp offerings include Video Production Camp, Comic Book Creation and Cartooning Camp, Marine Sciences and Scuba Camp, and Stand Up & Act Funny Camp.
