Eco Explorers
Has there ever been a better time to learn more about the environment?  This camp is a true exploration of the outdoors.  We will learn about the natural history of the area, explore the Hudson River estuary and trek the trails of the RPI Technology Park.  Through the course of the week campers will put what they are learning to use to develop a field guide to their own backyards that they will be able to take with them at the end of the camp. 

Intro to Robotics
Have you ever tried your hand at Legos® robotics?  Join CMOST in this Lego robotics camp where you can get hands on with both Legos® and robots for a fun and exciting experience.  Campers will use Legos® kits to build an amusement park and an intelligent house of the future as we experiment with Legos® and explore different scientific concepts.  Participants will try their hand at both building and programming in this new and exciting camp.  Join us and let your creativity be your guide as you design things as you see fit. 

Lights, Camera … Legos!
It’s time for lights, cameras & legos!  In this creative camp, participants will create their own Lego movie using the Digital Blue™ Movie Maker program.  Campers will experience all the functions of making a movie including writing a script, creating the storyboard, building the set, developing transitions (slide from one scene to another), and editing to perfection.  They will design the movie set by building LEGO® kits.  On the last day, CMOST will hold a movie premiere for the campers and their family.

 Weird and Wacky Science
The world is full of many different things that are just plain weird! From snails to silly putty, erasers to glue – strangely behaving things are everywhere! Come and experiment with weird science such as Oobleck, borax crystals, owl pellets, floating veggies, liquid lasagna and much, much more!

Moving Madness… The Science of Things that Go!
Have you ever flown a kite?  How about made a balloon car?  Have you ever designed a moon lander?  Join us for the moving madness where we will investigate the forces of flight, explore the mechanics of motion, and much more.  This camp will be a hands-on adventure looking into the investigation of motion and the science of things that go! 

GIST - What’s the Matter
Venture into the microscopic world of atoms and molecules as we discover matter and its many properties.  Campers will discover atoms and molecules through participating in The Molecularium, building molecular models with gum drops, and creating chemical concoctions.  Each day will be filled with different science experiments, fun games and hands-on explorations of all things small in this “ladies-only” camp. 

GIST - Lotions, Potions & Scientific Notions
In this ladies-only camp we will experiment with the chemistry that comprises all things beautified.  Campers will explore the chemistry of a day spa as they learn the inner workings of the business and create potions and concoctions of their own.
