About the event

Engineering Apprentics: Explore the world of engineering in a fun-filled day of learning!

Master Machines (Mornings 9-12)

Campers, get your thinking hats on, you are introduced to the concepts of circuit design, building, and testing through various hands-on engineering activities. You will use the Engineering Design Process to design, create, test, and improve a variety of machines and mechanical systems.

The young engineers will design, build, and test electromagnet cranes and wind turbines. The fun continues as they explore the concept of force, trajectory, and friction through designing and building hydraulic arms, launchers, and more!

Mechatronics and Sphero Robotics (Afternoons 1-4)

This summer our campers will build, create, and invent as they explore the basics of mechatronics engineering. They will work to design gadgets, tools, and machines from self-driving vehicles and art machines to a Chain Reaction Contraption.

Our young campers then use the fundamentals of coding kids.  They will be introduced to variables, conditions, functions, and more as they create a Time Bomb, Navigate a maze, and code the Sphero to escape a room as quickly as possible. The only limit is your imagination. We strive to inspire curiosity, creativity, and invention!

Classroom information will be emailed to parents ahead of time

Arrive at 8:45 on Day 1.  Please pick up at 4:00PM in the classroom
