Missouri S&T will host the nationwide Camp Invention program, an exciting day program for children entering grades one through six, in two separate week-long sessions this summer.
University employees are eligible for a $20 discount off the regular $205 fee for their children to attend either the Imagine Program, June 2-6, or the Encounter Program, June 9-13.
Children will participate in five inventive modules each day, including a module called "I Can Invent: Fantasy Inventions & Complicated Machines," where they will design and create their own inventions.
The Missouri S&T Center for Pre-College Programs will oversee the camp, and a staff of local teachers and counselors will lead the modules. Classes are scheduled each day from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
Contact Diane Hagni in the Pre-College Center to register a student under the employee discount at 341-4228, hagnid@mst.edu. For more information on the program itself, go to www.campinvention.org.
