Journey to CCBC this July for a myriad of classes and special events

CCBC offers a July filled with learning and entertainment this summer.  Take a course for credit or fun during Summer Session II beginning July 9 (5-week) and July 16 (6- week) classes.  Our popular Summer Learning Adventures Camps get into full swing during July. If theatre is your thing, you will absolutely love Cockpit in Court Summer Theatre's 40th Anniversary season.  Or if you are a history buff or just someone who loved the recent 'Sailabration,' you are sure to enjoy Chautauqua 2012 at CCBC Catonsville celebrating Maryland’s Role in the War of 1812.
