9 Weeks of Summer — Only at Our UM Location!
Our University of Miami location runs through August 7, 2026 — offering a rare 9th week that most camps don't provide because it falls so close to the start of school. We do it anyway, so your child's summer doesn't have to end early. No other Wise Choice location offers this.

Ready to Reserve Your Child's Spot?
Our UM location is the only one that offers a 9th week of camp — running all the way to August 7. Most camps don't offer a 9th week because it's too close to school. We do, because your child deserves a full summer. Spots fill fast — don't wait.
