Description


9AM-12PM: Junior BattleBots Robotics

Have fun creating robotic siege-weapons and go into battle with your friends!  Inspired by the hit show “Battlebots,” BattleBot Robotics teaches students about the integration of sensors, gears, pulleys, and coding while they try to blow each other up to smithereens!  Students build a different siege weapons, including robotic Catapults, Crossbows, Battleaxes, and more while learning how to apply Engineering concepts in a fun and engaging way.  Teams divide up to toss (safe) projectiles in the ultimate battle-royale!  Super-fun!

12PM-1PM: Lunch Break

Students should bring nut-free lunch, snacks, and juice to eat and enjoy as they get hungry throughout the day.  Water and restrooms are available.  If weather permits, campers will be taken outside to walk and enjoy the playground nearby.

1PM-4PM: Junior Coding with Scratch Junior
