Monday September 26th – Colorful Science
$85 per camper
Let’s take a colorful adventure together in science! Together we will mix dyes to make our own tie-dye tee and learn about the colors of the pH scale. We will harness the power of air pressure to make our own spud launcher and learn about the surface tension of water and test candy to see if it’s water-soluble.
Wednesday October 5th – Robotics 101
$85 per camper
Ready to put your engineering skills to the test? Science Explorers will investigate the center of gravity in objects. We will build a simple circuit and create our own motorized invention. Then we will learn about robotics and build our own robot that flips and rolls.
Tuesday November 8th – Super STEM
$85 per camper
Science Explorers will dive into all kinds of science in this awesome two-day mini-camp! We’re going to demonstrate cold chemical reactions using baking soda, create bubbly reactions, and learn about catalysts. We will demonstrate the awesome effects of air pressure and explore aerodynamics as we create our own airplane. We’ll also explore magnets, the properties of light, and even make some special bubbles!
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday November 21st, 22nd, & 23rd – Space PLUS
$255 per camper
It’s time to put on your space suit and explore deep space with this 3-day mini-camp! Together we will learn the planets in our solar system, build a refracting telescope, defy gravity with parachutes, make our own constellation projectors, build a stomp rocket, and more! We will also do some bonus experiments in engineering and mix in some science art.
