Registration
Registration for the 2010 season of The Kent Cummins Magic Camp in Austin Texas is now open!!
The Kent Cummins Magic Camp is a fully inclusive day camp for children between the ages of 6 and 12 (we do make age exceptions on a case-by case basis), running from 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M., Monday through Friday. Before and after care is available from 8:00 A.M. until 6:00 P.M. All of our regular sessions are two weeks long. After more than fifteen years of experience, we have observed that campers learn three to four times as much in a two-week session!

Support Magic Camp
As a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization, The Kent Cummins Magic Camp welcomes community support. We participate in fundraising activities throughout the year which help us accept more kids to camp whose families otherwise might not afford it. We also partner with businesses who support the camp based on community involvement with their businesses. For example, 5% of the money you would already spend on Apple's iTunes store can go directly to the camp scholarship fund.
