What is the camp’s mission and philosophy?

We offer real-world STEM skills to kids to prepare them for bright futures. We recognize that kids are ready for more tech at an earlier age.

What safety measures are in place?

We thoroughly screen and background-check our Camp counselors to ensure the safety of our campers. Plus, we train them in best practices, such as ‘rule of 3’ and health/safety measures.

What is the camper-to-counselor ratio?

8-1

How are staff members screened and trained?

We background-check & check references for our camp staff, plus we train them in health & safety best practices. All Camps Directors have CPR/First Aid Certification.

Is there a daily schedule, and can you provide an example?

Camps are weeklong half-days: 9-12 & 1-4. We offer a 20-30 minute outdoor snack & exercise break mid-way through AM & PM sessions and all-day campers stay for lunch: 12-1.

Are there opportunities for free play or downtime?

We take a mid-camp break each morning and afternoon during the camp day to provide snacks and outdoor play time.

How does the camp handle health issues and allergies?

We ask parents to provide details on health conditions and send epi-pens or rescue inhalers in needed. Our staff are first-aid trained if issues should arise.

Are there opportunities for parents to visit or participate in camp activities?

We invite all parents to attend a Friday Showcase to meet our staff and see what their students have accomplished during their camp week with us.
