Summer Camps

This summer, HMS will be again hosting several summer camps in July and August. Students interested in joining a team during the school year are encouraged to participate. However, participation is not required. Camps are spread out to allow students as many opportunities as possible. Students can participate in as many or as few as they like. While we want students to attend everyday, we understand that they may not be able to make all camp days. Students that attend will receive an HMS String Bag and Spirit Bracelet for every camp they attend.
