Student-Teacher Ratio 10:1
Let kids become junior scientists and embark on a series of science adventures.
Che-“Mystery” & Chemical Concoctions (Feb 17 - Feb 21): Have a ton of fun with all kinds of chemistry, including growing crystals, making sidewalk chalk, and learning the science of chromatography!! Mix it up as we experiment with molecular madness, radical reactions, and “fizz”-ical and chemical reactions. Use their observation skills, collect evidence, conduct chemical analysis and work together to solve a crazy Mad Science caper!
Secret Agent Lab (Mar 31 - Apr 4): From decoding messages to metal detectors and night vision, campers check out spy tech equipment and take-home lots of gadgets! Step into the shoes of a detective as you uncover the science involved in evidence gathering and analysis! Become a super spy and learn clever ways of performing tasks as we take a hands-on view of the science that spies and detectives use!

Mixtures and Motion (Jun 2 - Jun 6): Dive into the realms of the Chemical and Physical world in this crazy week of non-stop action – and Reaction! Explore our wonder lab and perform spectacular hands on experiments and continue the fun at home with the gadgets you’ve designed in the lab!
Dinos and Ancient Worlds (Jun 23 - Jun 27): Dinosaurs, Myths, and Legends! Dig up some proof when little more than fables are left behind! Learn about archaeologist, paleontologist, and the techniques scientists use to excavate and discern fact from fiction! Study bone fragments, pottery shards, amber deposits, and fossils to understand what they can tell us about history! Make and take-home projects each day like a fossil reproduction, an amber time capsule, coins from around the world!
Junior Inventors (Jun 30 - Jul 3): Creative Contraption Warning! This camp is designed by you—the Inventor! Each day you’ll be given a series of challenges which must be overcome using basic materials, simple machines, tips from world famous inventors and the most important thing of all – your imagination!
Machine Maniacs (Jul 7 - Jul 11): Whether you love to build things or destroy them, this camp includes lots of both! Design and build structures using simple tools and your imagination! The machine madness starts when you discover how different machines, both simple and complex, are used in our daily lives. Children will even build their own Robot!
NASA: Journey into Outer Space (Aug 11 - Aug 15): Mad Science and NASA have teamed up to bring you the excitement and wonder of space in this new voyage of discovery. See the principles of thrust and propulsion at work as we explore the atmosphere on earth and beyond! It’s out of this world!
