SUMMER CAMPS
All Summer 2020 Programs will be online.
Please visit our Classes page for details.
We will miss Pizza Fridays, family presentations, popsicles, watermelon,
and most of all - watching the kids coming together to build amazing
robots, Lego installations, and friendships. We are however, amazed everyday at the creative ways kids are bringing this same spirit and energy to our virtual programs.
SCHEDULE
We know kids love returning to our camps year after year, so we work hard to add new projects and activities each summer.If your child loved MineCraft Camp last summer, please assure them there will be lots of new Minecraft projects this year. Same goes for all of our camps!
A TYPICAL DAY AT CAMP
Campers work in age-appropriate groups throughout the week to complete a presentation for their families on Friday afternoon. Daily workshops are designed to balance computer coding and mechanical projects. Projects are based on hands-on learning, focus on fun and "aha" moments, and align with NGSS (National Science Standards)

WHAT CAMPERS BRING DAILY
The Robot Garage provides all materials (laptops, robotics, electronics, etc), as well as a 2020 camp t-shirt. Because campers typically work with thousands of dollars in materials, projects do not go home from camp. Many families purchase something special from our store on the last day of camp so kids can continue building and learning at home.
Campers bring the following:
-
2 snacks
-
Lunch
-
Water Bottle
*Friday is Pizza Day and included for all campers
OTHER INFORMATION
-
The Robot Garage develops our own curriculum and projects in-house and the program designers oversee staff training and camps.
-
We strive to develop camper confidence and nurture an interest in engineering and technology in the world around us.
-
Because everything we do is centered around hands-on learning, we maintain very tight staff to camper ratios - generally 1 to 6 or 8 depending on the group and age level.
-
We have 4 different camp themes for summer 2020. Campers can register for 1 theme or all 4.
CAMP REFUND POLICY
Summer Camps may be returned up to 10 days before the first session for a 10% administration fee. Between 9 and 1 days before the first session, a 50% refund is available. No refund is available the day of the first session. Though it is rare, The Robot Garage reserves the right to ask a camper not to return when there are repeated or severe discipline issues. No refunds will be given in these situations.
