SEMO Camps
Have a great time as you learn something new: you'll do that here.
We are excited to host a variety of camps, conferences, workshops, and programs that will enrich the personal development of individuals throughout the summer. Summer at SEMO offers a wide variety of academic and special interest opportunities to area youth ranging in age from pre-school to college through one-day, multi-day, and overnight summer programs and camps. Each program or camp is designed to highlight a particular field of study or skill and to encourage everyone to explore their potential.

Redhawk Kids Camp
Redhawks Kids Camp (RKC) is designed for children entering grades 1-6 in the Fall of 2026. Campers must have completed kindergarten and may not have started grade 6.
Redhawks Kids Camp is a very active day camp, full of fun games, activities, water games, swimming, walking field trips, and crafts. Our camp counselors are SEMO students who have the energy to match the campers.
To keep to a low camper-to-counselor ratio, we have a maximum capacity. Spots are open until filled.
Register for one or all weeks. Registration must be received and purchased by Wednesday of the week of camp. We do not allow walk-up registration the week of camp. The cost for the Redhawk Kids Camp for faculty and staff is $185 for a full week and $150 for a 4-day week. The cost for community members is $225 for a full week and $180 for a 4-day week.
Campers may be dropped off after 7:30 a.m. and must be picked up by 4:30 p.m. If you have any questions, please contact Logan Dunlap.

Emerging Medical Scholars Academy
SEMO and Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine (LECOM) are partnering to offer a day academy for students interested in pursuing a career in the fields of osteopathic medicine, pharmacy, dental medicine or podiatric medicine. It is open to high school students who will be graduating in 2027 or 2028. Academy is limited to 40 students.
This one week learning experience is aimed at assisting high school juniors and seniors to become familiar with healthcare career opportunities.
Highlights include:
- Experiences in clinical diagnosis of patients
- Hands-on activities and laboratories
- Career guidance sessions for healthcare professions
- Interaction with professional student mentors
Attending will also inform students of the opportunity to apply to LECOM's Early Acceptance Program, which provides a streamlined path to medical education as well as hands-on training. With LECOM's Midwest campus at Mercy Southeast, area students have the unique opportunity of clinical rotations right in Cape Girardeau.
