Re: Self Sustainable Team : Summer Camps.

Adam,

Your camps are very similar to ours. We are just finishing the planning and will post as soon as they are done.

We limit to 5 kids per kit. 1 counselor per team and at least two adult counselors are at the camp. We run from 9AM-2PM with snacks for lunch. Everyday we have some sciencey fun thing planned (water day, drive the big robot day, egg drop day, poster day (day 1)). The groups form teams, come up with team names, make a poster of their team. They keep engineering notebooks (important for Boy Scouts at our camp). Everyday, the team has to present their robot for the day. On the last day, we invite all the parents to join us for a final competition. The teams show their posters, describe what they have done, then have a competition.

We try to get our team to donate most of the supplies. We have three mindstorms we use and charge $75 for the 4 day camp.

This year we are adding a third week of camp in a poor neighborhood. Our plan is to find sponsors for each kid at the camp.
