Summer camps

Hi all,
I've been getting a lot of questions about if VT or someone in the area offers summer camps based on the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) disciplines. I've been contacting people here at VT to ask them to give me information on their programs so I could post them here on the blog. Another great resource is the VT-STEM website VT-STEM website that can give you an overall feel of the programs (summer and during the school year) that Tech has to offer.

Virginia 4-H has opportunities for children that are interested in SET (Science, Engineering and Technology). All of the 4-H summer residential camps have some SET programming focus. On the individual center web sites many have weekend specialty camps such as a Robotics camp. And as always, the best way to get information is for those who are interested in 4-H to contact their local Extension office. Many local programs also offer day camps and summer fun-shops.

Best,
Kristy
