Gallons of green glowing liquids; strange objects flying through the air; messages written in secret code; robots that play soccer; mystery substances that change from solid to liquid in seconds. Is this a fictional account of a visit to another planet? No . . . it's a Mad Science summer camp!Our camps are truly unique experiences and encompass all of the fun and excitement that people have come to expect from Mad Science. Campers create, build and assemble a variety of take-home projects while exploring how science affects the world around us. Children have so much fun that they forget they’re learning!

2016 Summer Camp Themes
For children entering 1st-6th grade in Fall '16:
Inventor & Explorers (*New this year!*): Creative Contraption Warning! This is a camp designed by our own creative inventors! Each day campers will be given a series of challenges which must be overcome using basic materials, simple machines, tips from world famous inventors and the most important thing of all… their mind. With a little bit of ingenuity they'll construct catapults and forts and then lay siege, fabricate innovative flying contraptions, design their own gizmo prototypes, and will even assemble a working Light Saber to take home. While Thomas Edison said invention is 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration, this camp is 100% fun!
REACTIONS IN ACTION(*New this year!*): See what you can do with science! Conduct some crazy chemistry with batteries, chemical clocks and more! Have a “whorl” looking at your fingerprints! Discover the amazing world of DNA! Make some icky “brain goo!” Bone up on your knowledge of our skeletons! Travel the amazing organ trail! Use your forensic skills to solve the “Great Cookie Caper!”
SPY ACADEMY: Become a Mad Science secret spy and take a fascinating journey into the world of detection, forensics and classified information. Go undercover and decode messages from other agents using your top secret clearance. Join the Mad Science Bureau of Investigation and sniff out forgeries and counterfeits.
