About this camp

Destination Science offers engaging hands-on science summer camps for children ages 5-11, fostering a love for STEM through interactive experiments and outdoor activities. Campers participate in three daily science stations, working collaboratively and independently on projects that explore various scientific concepts. These activities are complemented by two daily outdoor sessions for games and a Camp Rally to celebrate achievements. Through these experiences, children develop critical skills such as problem-solving, creativity, critical thinking, and collaboration. They learn the scientific method and observe cause and effect in action, building confidence and an appreciation for how the world works. Campers take home their daily creations, encouraging continued learning and discussion with family. The program aims to prevent summer slide by providing a fun, educational environment where kids make new friends and gain valuable life skills like perseverance and communication. The themed weeks, such as Robot Olympic Challenge, Movie Maker STEM Lab, and Jedi Engineering, ensure a diverse and exciting learning experience.
