Ignite scientific curiosity with themed camps this summer!

Dates & Times:

Half-day camps are held from 9AM to 12:30 PM. Full day camp is until 4 PM. Some camp themes are available as one Monday through Friday program, others include an option for single-day registration. Find those details in the “Schedule” table below.

Camps are for students entering grades 1-6 in Fall 2024. Some days students will all be in the same space, and other times they will be divided into two rooms, providing the older students an opportunity to engage in activities that require a higher degree of fine motor skills.

Camp Descriptions

Science Sampler: These single-day camps focus on one scientific discipline each day. Many camps begin with a story to set the stage for creative thinking. Choose the days you need for either half or full days.
Games Unplugged: Explore the ups and downs and ins and outs of the MESS Hall’s large-scale games. Engage in the science of strategy as you plan, create, and play your own games. *Camp attendees need to be comfortable with losing at games.
Blast Off!: Make it your mission to explore the universe through science and art.
Rockin’ Out: Investigate the world of geology and earth science, and maybe make some noise worthy of a rock band!
Wild World: Explore the world of living things during this week. It’s a blast of biology whether on land or in the sea.
Lego Builders: Up your creator skills with thousands of Lego bricks, focusing on buildings, vehicles, and working machines. Choose which days work best for your holiday schedule.
Lab Ratz: What happens when you mix kids and chemistry? An explosion of fun!* *No real explosions, because safety comes first. Lab goggles provided.
Inventor’s Workshop: Do you have what it takes to innovate? Can you evaluate a product and then turn it into something new and improved? Try your hand at the creative world of engineering innovations. This camp provides engineering challenges, but also leaves room for campers to attain the skills needed for product innovation.
MESSlandia: Inspired by the Newberry Award winning book Weslandia, campers will explore creating their own world using everyday and natural materials. This camp focuses on creative thinking and general merriment
Science Sampler: These single day camps focus on one scientific discipline each day. Many camps begin with a story to set the stage for creative thinking. Choose the days you need for either half or full day.
