Saint Paul College will be hosting our in person Scrubs Camp July 29-22nd 2021. Scrubs Camp offers an opportunity for your students to explore healthcare careers through interactive classes, possible field trips and hands on activities. Due to COVID, we are the only metro area Scrubs Camps this year. Here is a video of our Scrubs Camp in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGBygKlskao. Due to COVID it will be formatted into tracked cohorts with a shorter day and less of a camp cost. Our informational flier is attached, and registration is open. If you have students interested, please encourage them to sign up as soon as possible! We will also offer a limited number of scholarships. Scholarships will be available to students who qualify for free/reduced lunch and meet academic requirements. Register for Scrubs Camp at: https://mnscu.rschooltoday.com/public/getclass/category_id/850/program_id/43

We are also offering Summer Camps for Welding & Manufacturing, Cosmetology and Video Game Design. Additional information & registration information can be found our website: https://mnscu.rschooltoday.com/public/getclass/category_id/850/program_id/43
