Campers explore hands-on challenges and open-ended adventures designed to encourage new discoveries and bring big ideas to life! They discover how special effects work in art, movies, theater and animation, and they invent moving props with inspiration from real-life inventors behind special effects technology.
Tapping into their curiosity, they build their own spinning animation device and become illusion experts, ready to design entertainment experiences of the future. Campers unleash the power of creativity as they construct their own functional claw machine, exploring physics concepts in easy-to-reach ways.
Finding inspiration from claws in nature, they build, test and adapt their clawsome machine, then fill it with novel prizes. Along the way, they pick up entrepreneurship skills and uncover how to hook investors on their awesome new arcade experience!
Campers unlock their imagination as they head to Antarctica to explore penguin habitats in snowy landscapes. With the help of a Snow-ver — a rover equipped with a robotic research penguin — they glide across icy surfaces to enter penguin colonies undetected.
To deliver planet-saving eco-messages, they design launchers to propel their own magnetic, wearable plush penguin across the South Pole and beyond! Campers hit the road for the ultimate trip! They assemble a custom control panel complete with a transmitter and receiver, reference a travel map and explore the use of artificial intelligence in everyday items such as the GPS.
