Campers become inventors, designers, and space explorers by tackling exciting engineering challenges with a fun space-themed focus, emphasizing hands-on building, testing, and learning from the iterative design process.
Challenger Colorado's Engineering Pathfinder Summer Camps transform curious kids into inventors, designers, and space explorers. Campers engage in exciting, space-themed engineering challenges, fostering bold ideas, hands-on building, and iterative testing. The program emphasizes that experimentation and even 'oops' moments are integral to the engineering process. Activities incorporate diverse materials, from recycled crafts to robots and 3D printers, ensuring each day is filled with teamwork, imagination, and practical application. The camp aims to strengthen knowledge in STEM subjects and inspire students to pursue careers in these important fields. For middle schoolers (grades 6-8), the Pioneers camp focuses on Arduino programming & circuitry and 3D design & printing, allowing students to explore various engineering interests and leave with their own electronic microcontroller kit. Other age groups have different focuses, such as Voyagers (grades 3-4) training like Artemis Astronauts through robotics and coding, and Defenders (grades 5-7) designing engineering concepts to protect Earth from celestial bodies.
Every day is packed with hands-on fun, teamwork, and imagination, involving activities like dreaming up bold ideas, building cool projects, and testing creations using recycled craft materials, robots, and 3D printers.
This camp is ideal for curious kids who are interested in becoming inventors, designers, and space explorers, and who enjoy tackling exciting engineering challenges with a fun space-themed focus.
