Summer is officially underway at FACCES, and our campus is buzzing with energy, curiosity, and opportunities for young people to learn, grow, and create lasting memories.
Each day, campers are exploring new experiences through hands-on activities, educational enrichment, creative projects, outdoor play, and meaningful connections with peers and mentors. Our Summer Camp is designed to help children continue learning beyond the classroom while building confidence, friendships, and life skills in a safe and engaging environment.
One of the highlights of this summer is our Summer Guest Speaker Series. Throughout the season, professionals, artists, entrepreneurs, educators, and community leaders have visited FACCES to share their stories, careers, and experiences with our youth. These conversations have sparked curiosity, encouraged big dreams, and shown campers that there are countless paths to success.

We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has already volunteered for their time to invest in our youth.
We’re also looking for more guest speakers to join us this summer. If you’re a community member, business partner, organization, vendor, or professional with a story to share, we’d love to welcome you to FACCES. Whether you can demonstrate a skill, talk about your career, lead a hands-on activity, or simply encourage young people to dream big, your time can make a lasting impact.
By sharing your experiences, you’re helping inspire the next generation of leaders, innovators, creators, and changemakers.
There’s still time for families to join the fun! Summer Camp enrollment remains open, and we welcome children and youth who are looking for a summer filled with learning, exploration, and unforgettable experiences. Every day offers something new, making it the perfect opportunity to jump in and be part of an exciting summer community.
This incredible season wouldn’t be possible without the support of the City of Columbus Recreation and Parks Summer Youth Program Grant. Their investment in youth programming allows FACCES to provide enriching experiences that help young people stay engaged, continue learning, and thrive throughout the summer months. We are deeply thankful for the City of Columbus’ commitment to creating meaningful opportunities for children and families across our community.

Whether you’re looking to enroll your child or share your expertise as a guest speaker, there’s still time to get involved. Together, we can make this summer filled with discovery, inspiration, and opportunities that leave a lasting impact.
We can’t wait to see what the rest of the summer brings!
