A summer safety camp for children is open for registration, with a wait list.

Sponsors of the radKIDS® Summer Camp are the Marietta Police Department, Cobb County Police Department and Cobb County Safety Village.

radKIDS® is a safety education program that emphasizes personal empowerment.

The camp is designed for children between the ages of 5 and 12.

Topics to be covered include how to prevent bullying and how to stay safe while on the internet, at home, in a vehicle, at school and outdoors.

Also, children can learn the many tricks used by child predators and how to defend themselves to stop these possible child abduction attempts.

Costing $85 per camper, the camp will take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. July 18-21 at the Cobb County Safety Village.

The camp will be divided into two age groups: 5-7 and 8-12.
