Highschool Summer Camps

I have a rising-9th grader.  We often use summer camps to explore new areas or areas of interest that we don't get to during the rest of the year.  However, high school camps are fewer and further apart than camps for younger students.  If you know of some, would you mind sharing?

Here are some I know about in the NC Raleigh area (many have middleschool offerings as well):
