About This Event

Smart Ups is where future CEOs, changemakers, and innovators take flight!

Smart Ups is a high-energy, hands-on summer camp where 3rd–6th grade girls become bold business leaders! Over three action-packed weeks, they’ll dive into leadership, economic and financial literacy, and entrepreneurial skills by launching their own pretend businesses—each designed to make a positive impact on their community.

From branding and budgeting to marketing and money smarts, campers will sharpen their confidence, embrace body positivity, and gain real-world insights from entrepreneurship partners and industry professionals who will share their experiences and the realities of running a business.

They’ll also step into professional business settings, practice their public speaking, and put their skills to the test in our Business Showcase & Shark Tank Event, where they’ll pitch their big ideas to an audience!

Camp Dates: June 9th-27th, 2025

  • Shark Tank Event: June 27th, 2025

Camp Hours: Monday-Friday 9:00am-4:00pm 

  • Extended care is available from 8:00–9:00 AM and 4:00–5:00 PM. To secure your spot, you must check the extended care option on the registration form. 

Field trips are included in the camp experience! Details will be provided upon registration, and consent forms will be distributed in advance.
