The PRogram
01
PROGRAMMING
Our campers learn VEX V5 block code to program their robots, as well as basic coding principles that can be applied to other programs and languages, as well as larger robots and projects.
02
OPERATION
Our campers learn how to drive and operate their VEX robots through challenges and hands-on exercises. They also have the opportunities to learn about our competition robot.
03
COMPETITION
The week will end with a capstone challenge, where the campers will have to put all of their knowledge together and compete against other teams for the victory! The campers also learn about and practice Gracious Professionalism.
04
FUN & TEAMWORK
While our campers are competing against each other, they also get to know one another and have a lot of fun! Several campers have come to our camp and have left with a new group of best friends, who they still chat with a couple of years later!
Don't just hear it from us - hear what a camper had to say!
"My experience at the robotics camp was great, it was full of fun and education. We learned all about robots and what they can do. We even got to code our own robots to do all kinds of things. I learned so much during the week of robotics camp. I can’t wait to go back next year!"
