The Center for Innovative and Talented Youth (CITY) Pioneer Program, established in 2007, was a three-week-long residential summer camp for gifted teens in grades 8-10 held at the University of Denver. It was the Rocky Mountain chapter of Johns Hopkins University's Center for Talented Youth. To be admitted to the camp, students had to participate in the Rocky Mountain Talent Search, later the Rocky Mountain Academic Talent Search, in which they must take a college entrance exam such as the SAT or ACT.


Students could choose to take one of six classes, which they would study for seven hours each day, five days a week. Past class choices have included bioethics, Latin, psychology, writing, mythology, cryptography, Spanish, and x-game physics.


CITY is now called the Center for Bright Kids, and the summer program for students in grades 8-11 is called The Luminary Project.[1]
