Inventor’s Camp – June 20-23, 9am-3pm, Mon-Thu
6-8 yr olds (boys + girls)
Southern Ute Education Dept.
This camp is perfect for young tinkerers, builders, inventors and always-curious minds. Campers will use creativity, innovative thinking and problem solving to come up with unique contraptions, useful (and useless!) inventions, and solutions to a variety of challenges. From engineering boats, catapults and mini solar powered cars to constructing mini circuit bugs, we’ll make some friends, make a mess and, most importantly, make something new!
Girl Power Science! – June 27-30, 9am-3pm, Mon-Thu
9-12 yr olds (girls only)
Southern Ute Education Dept.
Join us for an all-star, all-girls science camp this summer! Campers will work together to design, build and problem-solve hands-on engineering challenges, explore the science behind food and cooking, construct wearable electronics, learn about (and work alongside) powerful woman in science, and experience a full day of Girls Who Code! Empowering girls through confidence-building science experiences…this is sure to be a blast for everyone!
Superhero Training Camp – July 11-14, 9am-3pm, Mon-Thu
9-12 yr olds (boys only)

POW! KABLAAM! Be prepared to release your inner superhero in this action-packed, good-deed-doing, skill-building training camp. Trainees will design costumes with build-in LED lights, build secret light signals, explore basic superhero and computer coding, design robotic sidekicks, and work in teams to problem solve tricky situations together and utilize others’ special powers/strengths. Don’t worry Durango, your future crime fighters and masked vigilantes are on their way!

Our youngest scientists will explore, experiment and invent with simple machines like pulleys, wheels and levers. We’ll build mini cars, engineer simple catapults, build super-tall structures, read stories, play games, and incorporate art into everything we do. Most importantly, we’ll work together as a team, enjoy and appreciate one another’s creativity, and have fun!
