So Which Ones Will ACTUALLY Help With College?

Hey everybody! I've read the thread about top summer programs, but I've also read many articles saying that colleges only care about certain summer programs, and that the Harvard/Brown/Stanford etc ones are pointless. Read this: http://www.businessinsider.com/pre-college-summer-programs-are-a-waste-2014-4 So.... after reading this I went out searching for things to do in the summer that would actually be interesting for me, and look impressive, while not having to shell out 6K. I really like TASP but I understand that they accept nearly nobody (5% I think it was?) and I'm still not sure how colleges would feel about that even though it's completely free if you are accepted. So what do you guys recommend that I do? Are there any really interesting and unique programs that would impress admissions? I honestly love to learn and/or do anything so suggest whatever you want! I'm specifically interesting in computer science, but literally anything would be helpful :) . I'm also happy going over to my local community college too because that sounds kinda exciting tbh haha. Thanks!
