Gallons of green glowing liquids; strange objects flying through the air; messages written in secret code; robots that play soccer; mystery substances that change from solid to liquid in seconds. Is this a fictional account of a visit to another planet? No . . . it's a Mad Science summer camp!
Our camps are truly unique experiences and encompass all of the fun and excitement that people have come to expect from Mad Science. Campers create, build and assemble a variety of take-home projects while exploring how science affects the world around us. Children have so much fun that they forget they’re learning!

2015 Summer Camp Themes:
EUREEKA: Creative Contraption Warning! Campers are given a series of challenges which must be overcome using basic materials, simple machines, tips from world famous inventors & more important… their mind. While Thomas Edison said invention is 10% inspiration & 90% perspiration, this camp is 100% fun!
SCIENCE IN MOTION: Discover how things move with science. Take apart pellets to see what an owl cannot digest! View the world through a camera obscura that you make yourself. Join a team of camper engineers and build bridges, domes, cubes and pyramids. Assemble and control pulleys, levers, catapults, simple machines and megapinchers! Make your own sidewalk chalk, crystal gardens & chromatography-dyed T-shirt!
BLAST OFF/ROBOTICS COMBO : (Entering 1st-3rd grade)
Your Jr. Mad Scientist will enjoy a week full of Rocketry and Robotics. From our Earth’s atmosphere to the outer reaches of our solar system, this hands-on program sends children on a quest for exploration! Comets, planets, stars and more are all waiting to be discovered. Learn about the four forces of flight, the challenges of space travel, and explore the science involved in rocket construction as you build your own Skyblazer II Rocket™! Explore circuits & electricity, robotic sensors, gears & advanced robotic applications. Play with different robots types while exploring their future capabilities. Investigate robotic fundamentals & build a robot to take home! What creative camper will design tomorrow’s future robots?
SPY ACADEMY: Become a Mad Science secret spy and take a fascinating journey into the world of detection, forensics and classified information.
