SCOPE believes that summer camp is an essential component of the year-round educational continuum and plays a critical role in helping children from underserved communities to thrive. Unfortunately, these children have little or no access to summer camps and programs, resulting in an enormous achievement gap and summer learning loss. SCOPE bridges this gap by making summer camp accessible to as many deserving children as possible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6881\" src=\"https:\/\/www.crestwoodcountryday.com\/pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/unnamed-6-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"376\" height=\"283\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.crestwoodcountryday.com\/pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/unnamed-6-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.crestwoodcountryday.com\/pages\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/unnamed-6.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 376px) 100vw, 376px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"font-size: 36pt\"><strong><span style=\"color: #008000;font-family: 'book antiqua', palatino, serif\">Swim 4 a Cause<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>This summer, the Leadership program has decided to take part in\u00a0<strong>Swim 4 a Cause\u00a0<\/strong>for the second\u00a0year in a row.
