Explore your creative side while designing and building toys, games, gadgets and anything else you dream up. Fire up our laser cutter, run our 3D printers non-stop, and take advantage of all of our tools and tech. You’ll be bringing home your projects and creations! Activities will be modified to camper age and ability.

FAQs
Do I need to provide lunch for my child?
A Meal Plan will be available as an add-on option for an additional fee.
If you do not register for the meal plan option, please provide your child with their own nut-free lunch, two healthy snacks, and a water bottle each day. Please be aware that campers will not be allowed to share their food to further protect children that have allergies.
Will my children be indoors all day?
Not at all! What makes our camp unique is the balance between indoor and outdoor activities. Our Makerspace is conveniently located right next to a local nature trail and park so campers get the chance to participate in challenges and activities outside, get some physical activities, and enjoy the fresh air!
What kinds of physical activity will kids do?
We encourage our campers to participate in various team sports at camp. We have individual as well as more leisurely activities that campers can participate in, like catch, frisbee, and a number of other team-building activities that will get them moving!
