Fungineering Technology Camp

If your child enjoys engineering, then THIS camp is right for them! Budding engineers love this "hands-on / mind-on" program. Concepts of simple machines such as gears, pulleys, levers, and wheels are introduced through a series of activity card LEGO® building projects. With the use of a motor and electrical controls, the models come alive right before their eyes.

*This camp is available for grades 1-2*

Rates: $238 members/ $268 non-members

The LEGO® courses use software by TechStars by Computer Explorers - a series of innovative classes designed to engage young children in the "STEM" approach to enhance learning through Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. 

After a morning of technology camp, why not sign your child up for an afternoon of water fun at Camp Splash Children ages 6-9 can enjoy a giant outdoor water slide, games in the pool, obstacle courses, and so much more One week camps (June 25 - August 17) run from 12 pm to 4 pm and cost $135 members and $165 non-members.
