Camp Invention® is coming to Capital City with an all-new program, Discover!
In partnership with the National Inventors Hall of Fame®, the Capital City area is excited to offer the nationally acclaimed Camp Invention program to children entering kindergarten through sixth grade. This inspiring, weeklong summer experience provides opportunities for open-ended, hands-on exploration of science, technology, engineering and more! Taking on a variety of exhilarating activities each day, children have fun collaborating with friends, thinking creatively and inventing their own solutions to real-world challenges.
The all-new 2025 program will ignite the imagination of both new and returning campers with an adventure full of inspiration, innovation and unforgettable discoveries!
During this action-packed, confidence-boosting program, young innovators will:
• Make their own personalized claw machine complete with one-of-a-kind prizes as they discover hands-on physics, explore animals with claws and become entrepreneurs
• Uncover the science behind optical illusions in art, movies, theater and animation, designing and testing various illusions and inventing moving props to become special effects experts
• Rev up for the ultimate road trip complete with a transmitter and receiver, custom dashboard and travel map, choosing their own path and inventing their way out of bumps in the road
