Discovery Summer Camp!

An excellent summer program for both Girls and Boys! CSTL’s Discovery Summer Camp gives your child an opportunity to have fun while learning. The camp engages children in hands-on investigations and fun experiments all summer long. Campers bring their ideas to life by designing projects, building and constructing, and using their imaginations to invent. The camp also includes activities in art, music, team activities and challenges, and  special events.. This exploratory way of learning gets kids involved and excited about their ideas.

• 5-12 years of age
• All day program! 9am-4pm, closed Sat. & Sun.

We do science and nature experiments and explorations. We have a staff of educators and scientists. The common theme is to make science learning fun through experimentation, explorations, hands-on experiments, and engineering.

We often explore the woods, ponds, and stream ecosystems. We discover living things, collect them, examine them closely, and learn about their importance to living systems. You will often see teachers taking their classes to scoop things out of the pond, wading in the streams to experiment with hydrology, or carrying jars to collect things they find. Teachers show kids the relationships between living and non-living things. Through thought provoking questions we aim to get your child thinking and asking questions of their own. Through conversation and discovery we hope your child learns while having fun.

• We also conduct engineering projects like building boats, bridges, solar cookers, simple circuits, and roller coasters to name a few projects.
• We conduct chemistry, physics, earth science, zoology, botany explorations, insect and macro-organism discoveries.
• We have field day which is a casual event of water related fun and old fashion country-styled relay races like an egg toss, water balloon toss and ice cream parties, special science shows and presentations.
