Summary

Droid Days and Droid Factory are our brand-new robotics camps. With a curriculum that challenges kids to design, build (yes, with circuits and components), and program their robots, this camp is a unique opportunity for young people to explore the exciting world of robotics and STEM.
ScienceWorks camps are led by experienced instructors and children's curiosity. We have three camp sections weekly to ensure all campers are surrounded by potential new friends in their age and ability range. Our camp instructors are experienced and comfortable with supporting different learning styles and needs, such as ADHD and neurodivergence.

GENERAL INFO

ScienceWorks proudly offers high-quality and fun science-based summer camps for the Rogue Valley since 2003. In-person, small class sizes, guest speakers, and exciting locally inspired investigations make our camps accessible and engaging. Our campers will be divided into 3 cohorts based on ability level to ensure that each camper is able to feel successful and engage with the content at their own pace.

A limited number of camp scholarships are available. If your family has EBT (Oregon Trail Card), SNAP or free school lunches and would like to apply for a camp scholarship, please email scholarship@scienceworksmuseum.org one piece of official correspondence reflecting that your family receives this type of assistance and we will reach out to you.
