Arts & Robotics Camp
March 23-25, 2012
Ages 9-13

Although Arts Camp has been a trusted favorite of our youth, we've combined it with a new favorite discovered at this past year's Science Camp - ROBOTICS! Campers will be combined during recreational activities, meals, campfire, etc but will be structured in different learning environments during the day dependent upon their registration. "Arts" tract will experiment with multiple art focused activities and hands-on development. "Robotics" tract will discover the awesomeness of building, programming, and operating robots. No experience necessary! We are looking forward to combining two of our favorite activities and giving our youth the opportunity to share their experiences with eachother.
