Scholarship Opportunities

UTC Campus Recreation believes that all people deserve the right to play, recreate, connect with others, and pursue holistic wellness.  The camp experience, and the act of play, has the amazing ability to break down economic, racial, geographic, religious, ethnic, and social barriers.  UTC Campus Recreation's Mocs Adventure Camp celebrates diversity and actively promotes understanding between people.  Open-hearted children become open-minded adults.  UTC Campus Recreation offers three full scholarship opportunities per session.
