Ocean Bytes
For ages: 9-11
2021 Dates: June 25
Program Cost: $75
In this single day camp, we explore the world of ocean technology through hands-on e(nvironmental)-STEM activities! Campers will get their feet wet using some of the tools scientists use to study the oceans, including underwater robots, drones, and GPS along our beaches. Back inside, campers will be challenged to design and build circuits in a creative ‘make-and-take’ activity focusing on deep-sea animals.
*Activities are not water-focused, but some areas we visit may be wet or muddy.
