Electric Election Day
Come experience the exciting and explosive forces of energy! Build circuits, charge up with static electricity, and fashion your own light-up trinket. Like gizmos? This is the camp for you!
Science that Served
Explore the surprising, everyday legacy of military innovation — the technologies that began as wartime necessities and went on to reshape ordinary life. Campers will crack codes using Morse and cryptographic puzzles inspired by WWII-era cryptography, test the physics of radar and echolocation with hands-on sensing demonstrations, and investigate the materials science behind gear built to withstand extreme conditions. Along the way, students trace a throughline from battlefield problem-solving to the tools, gadgets, and even medical breakthroughs we rely on today — discovering how necessity, constraint, and urgency have always been powerful drivers of scientific discovery.
