Just because we colonize Mars doesn't mean crimes won't happen in space! Yikes! That's when we'll need real space detectives to solve crimes. This story follows the saga of Lucas Holmes, the first "space detective," as he leads campers through intrigue, sabotage and foul-play to solve riddles and clues, all while integrating astrophysics, engineering gadgets, traditional crime-solving skills like fingerprint and evidence analysis, and much more! Give your future astro-crime fighter a unique STEM experience this summer!

Robots are everywhere! They drive cars, explore planets, automate factories, clean homes, and are part of our daily lives. This in depth robotics and programming camp (utilizing Mindstorm) helps future robotics engineers understand both the fundamentals and complexities of robotics as well as how to integrate it with programming. They explore different robotics engineering concepts and design their own solutions to real-world challenges. By the end of the week, campers will understand the concept of technological dualism - melding both mind (programs) and body (robots) to create something truly unique and exciting.

Ever wanted to see the curvature of the Earth? Campers build a 3D-printed, technology-packed, can-sized satellite and launch it with a high altitude balloon into the stratosphere - above the ozone layer - at more than 100,000 feet! In partnership with Magnitude.io, this camp places students in the midst of a scientific exploration mission culminating in a balloon launch of a real scientific payload and analysis of the resulting data, all while learning physics, arduino programming, atmospheric conditions, airspace regulations and other mission-critical parameters that will inspire them like never before! [Note: student/parent travel required to see balloon launch; launch schedule subject to FAA/atmospheric conditions.]

Imagine if the asteroid that hit Earth 60 million years ago missed! How would that have impacted evolution, our ecology and more? Would dinos be our pets or would we be theirs?! We'll explore that concept in a fun way with activities about the natural world, having students learn dino biology and ecology, then applying that to the possible evolution to modern dinos. Campers will engage in both exploratory field and laboratory work to study different specimens, as well as create their own crafts-based creatures, play games and much more!

Experienced students learn everything they need to build and program their own multi-tasking Arduino robot! Throughout the week, campers design, build and program their own robotic platform with Arduino and Robot C programming language, using various sensors and micro-controllers. In addition, they learn how to perform "simulation" - an important tool in engineering design. For the true robotics engineer, this camp allows students to plan their own projects, use creative engineering and scientific tools, and program with a powerful programming language!
Prerequisite: Programming and robotics experience preferred. Ability to follow complex instructions required.

Mon AM: Inventor Camp
Campers build towers from legos, sail boats across the "English Channel", and play some original, STEM-inspired science games. Sure to challenge their problem-solving skills but still all the camp fun they can handle!
Mon PM: A Wonderful STEM Christmas
Holiday-themed fun featuring integrated STEM activities! Join us for Santa’s sleigh race, make imaginative structures with a seasonal flavor, and experiment with some candy chemistry! Campers will unleash their creativity and be challenged to use their critical thinking skills.
Tue AM: Biology Explorations
Campers learn about the living world while getting hands on with fun experiments and games. They'll learn about living vs nonliving things (the "Mrs Gren" method) and play games with each other testing the 5 senses that we humans have!
Tue PM: Chemistry Explorations
States of matter, film canister rockets, purple slime and more! Campers can't resist having fun in this camp learning about chemical reactions while getting their hands deep into utter messes!
Wed AM: Robots are Friends!
Young campers will play with simple robots, learning the basics of building and coding while having tons of fun with their friends in this camp! Prior experience in robots not necessary, but those with experience can learn something new too!
Wed PM: Computers Conquer the World!
Programming is the language of the future. The earlier they learn it, the better off we'll be so computers don't turn into human terminators! Campers will engage in the Scratch programming language with interactive stories, games, and animations while building a problem-solving and teamwork mindset.
