Summer Splash allows parents to meet with providers of summer camps, health and wellness, college preparatory, after school and tutoring programs to ensure their kids have a fun, safe and adventurous summer.

“For families looking for summer camps and other summer related activities, this is the one-stop-shop to see all of the options available. Choosing the perfect program for your family and kids is extremely important, and having face-to-face time with camp directors and staff is what sets Summer Splash apart from all others.” says Angela Ardolino, Founder and Editorial Director of Tampa Bay Parenting Magazine.

This will be the first time that Glazer Children’s Museum has hosted the annual event.

“Given that Summer Splash helps to promote educational programs and the health and well-being of children,” says Museum CEO, Al Najjar. “We believe it is a natural fit to host this event at the Museum. Parents will get the opportunity to hear about a number of different programs, including our own summer camp program, as well as experience the learning and discovery that happens every day with our interactive exhibits.”

Summer Splash will include live entertainment, free activities, music and giveaways every half-hour including free weeks of camp and a special rock performance by students of Patel Conservatory’s Rock School. The first 150 kids will also receive a goody bag filled with summer essentials.

Admission is $5 per person and includes all day play in the Museum. Museum members will be admitted for free.
