Oooohs from kids crouching eye-to-eye with a praying mantis or studying salamanders in a creek. Aaaahs of children holding a space rock or trying to land a fragile glass ornament on a Mars-like surface. Whumps of cleats pounding soccer balls. These are only a few sounds from the 98 summer camps and programs that Carolina offers for ages K-12. (UNC.edu)
