Summer 2022 Camps
Our Summer Camps will be happening in person! We will have the option to offer virtual camps depending on the needs of the learner.
Weeklong Camps:
Mon to Fri - 5 days / 3 hours a day
Half Day Camps: $180
Full Day Camps: $375
Children can stay for full-day camps and attend two camps in one day, one in the morning and another in the afternoon. A lunch break will be provided, parents are reminded to pack lunch for full-day participants.
All of our classes are designed for students aged 7-12 years old. These are flexible so that different skills can be learned depending on their age and ability. Please let us know if you have a child younger or older, as depending on their abilities they may still find these classes rewarding. Available camps:

Space Exploration

Look beyond our atmosphere in an Astrophysics class! Take off into our galaxy and learn about the night sky, stars, planets, missions to the moon, Venus, Mars and beyond.
Between 1990 and 2003, NASA launched four great telescopes into space to observe the Universe in different but complementary ways. The Hubble Space Telescope receives visible and ultraviolet light from both “nearby” and very distant stars and galaxies. The Compton Gamma Ray Observatory detected highly energetic radiation from exotic and violent astrophysical processes. The Chandra Observatory measures X-rays coming from hot gas in space. And the Spitzer Space Telescope imaged infrared radiation (heat) from dusty regions of galaxies where visible light is blocked. Separately, from 2009–2018, NASA’s Kepler satellite searched for planets around half a million stars in our Milky Way Galaxy. Come to learn about the history of these missions, how they work, and some of the discoveries they have made in a “golden age” of astronomy.
