TNT Summer Day Camp just gets better every year, thanks to numerous community supporters and donors. The day camp is Monday through Thursday from June 6-July 14. A few of the awesome things the TNT kids will be doing this summer are swimming at the Community Center Pool, learning culinary skills with the area chefs, working out with CrossFit Mayhem, visiting Roland Motors and Advertising, seeing behind-the-scenes government offices, touring Dale Hollow Fisheries and Dam, going to the movies, enjoying a spa and sports day and much more! Plus, it's all free to TNT members!
