Session 1: Future-Ready Eco-Innovators: Building for a Sustainable World

In this session, campers think like eco-innovators as they tackle real-world challenges inspired by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities. Groups tackle specific targets from urban farming and renewable energy integration to solutions for ocean plastic pollution and eco-friendly city designs. Campers will collaborate to brainstorm and prototype creative ideas that utilize tools and tech to build greener, more sustainable communities. The session is perfect for young changemakers ready to explore, invent, and lead the way toward a better world.

Session 2: Inventor’s Playground: Design, Code and Build the Future of Play

In this hands-on session, campers prepare to become tomorrow’s inventors as they dive into the world of design, coding, and robotics to create their own games and systems. They experiment with the latest tech to build age-appropriate projects ranging from interactive mazes and games to motorized robots that can complete missions. Whether they're constructing simple machines or programming complex systems, campers learn how to bring their bold ideas to life in a fun, collaborative environment. Perfect for curious minds and aspiring creators, this session encourages campers to imagine and build the playgrounds of tomorrow using tech they love.

My son has had an amazing experience at Steam Camp this summer! It is the perfect balance of learning and stretching the imagination, and good old summertime fun. The counselors go above and beyond to create a memorable camp experience, and the off campus trips are the cherry on top. I cannot recommend Steam Camp enough!
