PINEDALE — Camp Invention®, a nationally recognized, nonprofit summer enrichment camp program, is coming to Sublette BOCES in Pinedale the week of July 15.
A program of the National Inventors Hall of Fame® in partnership with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, Camp Invention challenges children in grades K-6 to tap into their natural curiosity and use their creativity to solve problems. Through hands-on activities, Camp Invention promotes STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) learning; builds confidence, leadership, perseverance and resourcefulness; and encourages entrepreneurship — all in a fun and engaging environment.
Each year, the program features a new curriculum inspired by some of our nation’s most world-changing inventors — the National Inventors Hall of Fame Inductees. This year’s Illuminate program encourages children to have confidence in their ideas and explore their innovativeness through hands-on experiences, including:
• Let’s Glow™: Creativity radiates as campers explore the science of light through illuminating inventions and the genetic code of glowing animals.
All local Camp Invention programs are facilitated and taught by qualified educators who reside and teach in the community. Camp Invention serves 122,000 students every year and partners with more than 2,500 schools and districts across the nation. For more information or to register, visit invent.org/camp.
