Summer Camps – Georgetown
Want your child to do something unique and absolutely cool this summer? How about having them learn how to build and design Robots using the LEGOs? Students will learn basic robotic engineering, programming principals, and the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) concepts while having FUN!
Your child’s natural curiosity and ingenuity will help them envision possibilities and develop innovative solutions to difficult technology problems. Learning Fun 101 will challenge your student with authentic, hands-on explorations and then provide support as they engage in:
Questioning • Exploring • Imagining • Designing • Constructing • Inventing • Testing • Observing • Learning • Failing (and trying again)
No prior Lego experience is required. Students will be taught everything they need to know during our camps. Students will work in teams of two/three —friends are welcome to sign up together and can be partners.
Georgetown Camps
GT 6/18-22 - LEGO® Mindstorm - Amazing Machines - Rising 4th - 7th
Students learn to design and build their own motorized machines. Using principles of simple and complex machines, gearing, and mechanical advantage, students can build a ball roller coaster, peg sorter, power saw, lawn mower and more. Students will build a different machine each day.
NEW Projects!
Returning campers will be given more challenging projects.

Date: June 18th - 22nd Time: 9am - 12pm Cost: $135
GT 6/25-29 - LEGO Fungineering - Sports - Rising K - 1st
NEW Camp!
Young budding engineers love this "hands-on, minds-on" program. Concepts of simple machines such as gears, pulleys, levers and wheels are introduced through a series of activity-card LEGO building projects. With the use of motors and electrical controls, the models come alive right before their eyes! Student will engage in projects that connect with that camps theme with a variety of different kits: Simple Machines, Motorized Simple Machines, WeDo Robotics, Crazy contraptions, LEGO structures and MORE!
Date: June 25th - 29nd Time: 1pm - 4pm Cost: $135

GT 6/25-29 LEGO Robotics - Sports - Rising 2nd - 3rd
NEW Camp!
LEGO® RCX Mindstorms Robotics Construction Set will introduces young students to robotics, programming and the world of engineering.
Students will have fun creating robots that can throw, dunk, kick and score. You can increase your robot's speed, flexibility and range of motion and then experience the thrill of victory when your robot goes for a long shot and actually scores the goal!
Date: June 25th - 29th Time: 1pm - 4pm Cost: $135

GT July 30 - August 3 - LEGO Mindstorm - Battle Bots & Animation - Rising 4th - 7th
Battle Bots: Campers learn to design and build their own motorized battle cars and other vehicles. Using principles of simple and complex machines, gearing, and mechanical advantage, students will try to flip, push, or smash their opponent’s battle vehicles. Students learn the use of mechanical lifts, drills, ramps and more to disable or overcome other bots. Students may outgrow their love of LEGOs (don’t count on it), but this insight into physics will stay with them forever.
Animation: In this fun and challenging camp, we will introduce students to the world of animation. Teams of two or three will work create a short stop-motion film using LEGOs. Students will learn about storyboarding, animation, post-production, and the importance of teamwork. If you joined us last year, join us again for more challenges including editing and sound effects.
Date: July 30 - August 3 Time: 1pm - 4pm Cost: $135
