Camp Description
Join us for a week of science exploration and fun! In this course, campers will work with everyday ingredients to create fun projects like lava lamps, egg geodes, and even make ice cream in a bag. Experiments and projects will be hands on and will encourage young science enthusiasts to be curious and think creatively. Counselors will help students engage with the scientific method and experimental processes to create an exciting and fun learning experience.
During the middle of the day, campers will have an opportunity to enjoy our 窶廚ross-Training窶 hour: They can play a choice of sports, swim, or have fun in our arcade.
