Mad Science Camps

Eureka! The Inventors Camp

Creative Contraption Warning!!!

In our Eureka Camp, campers will go on an incredible scientific journey through the Ages from Leonardo da Vinci to Outer Space. From Medieval Times to Science Fiction, this fun camp covers a lot of ground and scientific concepts. Each day, with instruction and guidance from our Mad Scientist’s, campers will be given a series of challenges which must be overcome using basic materials, simple machines, tips from world famous inventors and the most important thing of all… their imagination. With a little bit of ingenuity they’ll construct catapults and forts and then lay siege, fabricate innovative flying contraptions, design their own gizmo prototypes, and will even assemble a working Light Saber to take home. This is one exciting week filled with team building, cooperation, problem solving, and of course loads of fun, educational, hands-on experiments and activities. Campers will also receive a Mad Science T-Shirt and daily take-home projects. Did we mention that this camp will be SUPER FUN?!?!
