Wave Robotics in partnership with the YMCA hosts three, one week camps called Tech Adventure for students 9-14. The first two camps are for 4 days that revolve around the Mindstorms kit and the basic programming aspects of it. On the 5th day of those camps we have a additional day available where students get to learn about physical and/or chemical science. The last week is where students will get 4 days to design and program a robot for the Food Factor Challenge and will compete on the 5th day.
We have actively sought out grants were able to hire a couple of teachers to design and lead a structured curriculum for the camp. The Physical and Chemical science days are designed and lead by students of Wave Robotics.
The YMCA provides the facilities and covers the other expenses and we split 50% of the gross profit with them (very advantageous for us).
