As you prepare your child for their summer course at their scheduled camp location, you might be wondering what to expect for them day-to-day. We made a sample schedule to give you a better idea of what camp days will look like. And, if they have a friend who’s considering camp, forward this blog so they’ve got the inside scoop too!
Camp day
Sunday evening at 6pm, overnight campers will check in, complete paperwork, and commence their first night in the dorms!
7:15am Rise and shine
Mornings begin with time to get ready for the day. From there, it’s a walk to the dining hall for 7:45am breakfast with new friends.
9:00am Icebreakers
Camp starts with morning announcements, team-building activities, and icebreakers to help campers get to know their peers and instructors. Then, campers will split into groups and head to the lab.
9:30am Small group learning
On the first day of camp, campers will learn the ropes for the foundation of their project. On Tuesday and Wednesday, they’ll ideate, brainstorm, and begin to build.
12:00pm Lunch
The campers will walk to lunch together. On the way, they’ll see more of campus before chowing down in the dining hall.
1:00pm More inspirational instruction
Campers continue strengthening skills under the guidance of expert instructors. On Wednesday and Thursday, they’ll use this time to dig in and tinker with their projects.
2:30pm Outdoor exploration
Camp is all about getting a taste of the college experience. That’s why we balance fun with tech with fun on campus. Campers will burn some energy with kickball, capture the flag, wildlife photography, and more!
3:15pm Back to the lab
Campers return to their projects with fresh eyes and continue their masterpiece. Toward the end of the week, they’ll begin to see their project come to life and get it presentation-ready. On the last day of camp, they’ll find the perfect stopping point and complete any finishing touches before the Family Showcase!
4:00pm That’s a wrap!
Each day of camp will end with a daily review and shoutouts to highlight positives from the day.
4:30pm Independent enrichment
Overnight campers have the extra opportunity to keep working independently on their project in the lab. Or, if they need a brain break, they have the option to play board games and continue bonding with friends!
6:00pm Dinner and activities
Nighttime brings a dinner of champions in the dining hall, followed by a night of tinkering with projects, bonding, gaming, movies, and more.
8:00pm Time to relax and socialize
While there’s always supervision, campers are free to socialize with peers as they learn how to balance time between engaging with coursework and fun with friends—a sneak peek of what college will bring!
10:00pm Lights out
Sweet dreams in the dorms are a must to power up for the next day of adventures.
Final day festivities
On the last day of camp, families are invited to our Family Showcase—bring some tissues and get ready to match your child's proud smile! After final check-out, you’ll get to hear their epic stories from the week all the way home.
