science camps

Youth laboratory retreats

Science camps are organized programs, typically for children and teenagers, offering hands-on activities in scientific fields during school breaks.

Participants might build robots, conduct chemistry experiments, or study wildlife in natural settings.

The camps aim to spark interest in STEM subjects through immersive, often residential experiences: She spent two weeks at space camp in Alabama.
