The camp offers a high-tech, cutting-edge educational experience within the engaging environment of the Liberty Science Center, blending academic rigor with traditional summer camp fun and daily museum exploration.
The Liberty Science Center's "Athletes in Motion" Science Camp for middle schoolers delves into the scientific principles underpinning human movement and athletic prowess. Campers engage in hands-on activities and experiments to explore concepts such as the forces behind running, jumping, and maintaining balance. They will analyze the movements involved in various sports and investigate how the human body performs these actions. The program aims to foster an understanding and appreciation for STEM fields while developing critical thinking, collaboration, and communication skills through an inquiry-based curriculum. Daily structured museum exploration and outdoor activities are also part of the camp experience, providing a blend of academic learning and traditional summer camp fun.
Camp runs from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm, with morning and afternoon science sessions, a lunch and recess break, and a snack break in the afternoon.
This camp is ideal for middle schoolers who are curious about the science behind sports and human movement, enjoy hands-on learning, and want to develop STEM skills in a fun, collaborative environment.
