Hardhats on, your maker mission begins now!

Get ready for an action‑packed week of engineering creativity as we imagine, design, and build all sorts of awesome inventions. From zippy slingshot cars to clever mechanical arms, campers will dive into hands‑on challenges that spark curiosity and show just how innovative engineers can be. Along the way, we’ll explore how engineering helps solve problems and make the world a better place.

If you love to create, tinker, build, and bring big ideas to life, this is the camp for you. Come unleash your creativity and engineer something amazing!

Camp Hours: 9:00am - 3:00 pm

Grade Level: Register for the grade that your camper will be entering in the fall of 2026.

Recess & Lunch: Participants will get outside for approximately a 30-minute recess and hour-long lunch each day*

Activities: In our camps we will have a variety of activities including engineering building challenges, coding projects, experiments, creative design projects, and more.

Before & After Care: For campers entering grades 1-10, we offer before and after care options along with our camps to try and accommodate the busy lives of parents/guardians. Before care runs each day of the camp (except for the first day) from 8am to 9am, and after care runs each day from 3pm to 4pm. Parents may purchase either option with their registration.

- Before Care Pricing: $30-$40 for the week (depending on the week selected)**
- After Care Pricing: $40-$50 for the week (depending on the week selected)**

*Outside time is weather permitting
**On short weeks, before and after care are still offered on camp days, but not on the holiday



Character Development: This program helps build the following traits

  • Creativity: Our Maker camps provide an age-appropriate introduction to the wonders of Engineering. Through our activities, we incorporate STEAM concepts into design challenges and step-by-step lessons. In these activities, campers can flex their creative design and problem-solving skills!
  • Interpersonal skills: True Engineering doesn't happen alone! Participants will participate in the Engineering Design Cycle with their peers and come up with creative ways to solve every day problems.
