Summer Camp
Summer Camps run for 11 weeks throughout the summer beginning the week of Memorial Day. Camps are offered for grades 1-6 and 7-9. Registration will be available in early 2025.
Curious minds make happy STEM campers! Our summer camps help children form friendships and develop a love for science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) as early as first grade. The informal camp setting inspires a sense of wonder and curiosity in our campers.
What Campers Learn in Summer Camp
Hands-on experiences encourage campers to explore how and why things happen and discover the answers through experimentation. Campers get to see and do activities they might not normally get a chance to try, which creates a sense of accomplishment and allows them to uncover interests they didn’t know they had!
STEM Activity Examples for Grades 1-6
- Engineering – Campers use assorted materials to create a
structure that can hold a book for 30 seconds, build a bridge between two chairs that will
hold weights, design something to protect a raw egg when dropped from a height, etc. - Experiments – Experiments range from extracting DNA from fruit to comparing gummy
bears left overnight in plain/salt water to chromatography. - Coding – Campers learn and experiment with programming using Finch robots and Spheros.
- Construction Design – Campers make a variety of creations to test and refine, such as rubber band cars, hydraulic arms, mini golf courses, airplanes, automatas, parachutes, catapults, and rockets.
- Outdoor activities – Nature walks, stomp
rockets, bubbles, plant and tree identification, etc.
