There is more to summer than mindless time spent at the pool or in front of the television, especially for teens. While other camps are designed for the younger kids, TeenTrek is geared for teens ages 13 to 15. The camp, held at Helen Meyer Community Center , 4525 New Forest Drive in southwest Las Vegas , was planned by teens for teens, ensuring a well-rounded, educational and fun summer for all. TeenTrek operates from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. Monday through Friday from June 8 to Aug. 21. The camp is closed on July 3 for the Fourth of July holiday. Cost for the camp is $15 per day or $60 per week.
After camp, teens can enter Teen Scene, the community center’s free program offered from 3 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday all year. In the program, teens participate in planned activities and use the amenities in the center’s Teen Room. Although teens can sign themselves in and out of Teen Scene, a participant card must be signed by a parent or guardian in order to participate.
