The Robots-4-U Summer Camp for Girls and Boys, sessions are a week long (5 days) and provide a safe and fun learning environment for youth interested in both Robots and Computers. With a great hand’s on approach, each student will be given access to a robotics kit and computers during each camp session. Themes include: Sports, Racing, Rescue, Art, Creative Designs, Bugs and Animals as Robots Build, Designed and Programmed by the campers.
Every participant builds their own robot from a robotics Kit that is age and level appropriate, that they use for the week, and return on the last day of camp. Campers share a pool of computers, which are used to program the Robots.
Age 6 to 8 – Beginner will build 2-4 structures, up to (5) robots programs.
Age 9 to 13 – Beginners to Intermediate will build & program 6-10 robots.
Age 14 to 17 – Intermediate, will build, program & test 7 to 10 robots, including custom designs.

Other Information for Girls and Robotics
Science and Technology is typically an area that boys are interested in. We believe that Girls can find Science and Technology as very interesting. This is especially true with Robotics and Sensors. In this camp we give girls the opportunity to explore the Robotics field in a creative manner. We allow girls to drive to areas beyond traditional engineering and try Dynamic Art that utilizes the same robot kits but for moving art projects. Additionally we encourage girls to embrace Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (S.T.E.M.) as great field to learn and explore for future opportunities in College.
