About Blueprint4
Blueprint4 is a non-profit initiative of the Clark-Fox Family Foundation working to make summer, after-school, and college prep programs accessible for ALL youth in the St. Louis area. Our free database of local youth programs helps save families from overwhelming hours of camp research by giving them a one-stop shop of summer, after-school, and school break programs on one website. Families can filter down camps by distance from their house, cost, date, subject area, age range, and more to find the perfect programs for their families’ needs.
While the Blueprint4 database is a great year-round tool, below are some timely programs and some of our most-requested program types:
