Robotics Day Camps
Summer, March Break, PA-Day and Holiday camps for students ages 8-14. Instructors mentor students in a 4 to 1 ratio using the VEX IQ robotics kit. Students work in pairs to build robots that compete in robotics sports tournaments throughout the program. It’s a sports camp that gives students a head-start academically, and develops technology skills that will benefit them for the rest of their lives. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never built a robot before, or if you’re an experienced pro. Bot Camp instructors will tailor the experience just for you! Available in 4-Day and 5-Day formats.

Day camp programs are available during most public and private school breaks. In addition, please consult our schedule to find your next available camp.
