Lego Summer Camp

A Lego Summer Camp that focuses on programming, building, and teamwork skills!

Each summer, Merrimack High School’s FIRST Robotics Competition Team Chop Shop 166 hosts a day camp for ages 8-14 that focuses on building and programming LEGO robots to complete different challenges. At the end of each one week session, the campers are able to compete with one another and show each other and their families the robots that they worked together to create. The campers learn a lot about robot design, teamwork, and most importantly; having fun! Campers work in small groups with a Mindstorms NXT kit to build a robot that can complete different challenges. This year, the sessions are July 20-24 and July 27-31. Please visit http://chopshop166.com/drupal/LEGOcamp for more information and to sign up!
