We believe that every child is a scientist, an engineer, a game designer… the possibilities are endless! Our camps offer fun and discovery, where young minds can explore their passions, try something new and unleash their creativity. With over 40 unique camps for rising Kindergarteners through 7th grade, we offer something for every curious young mind. Our day camps aim to SPARK imagination, DISCOVER possibilities, INSPIRE future innovators and IGNITE a passion for learning. 


What makes us special?

  • Our camp counselors. They are college students and teachers with a passion for sharing their knowledge and love of Science, Technology, Engineering,      Art and Math with children. 
  • Our volunteers. Many are former campers who choose to continue sharing their excitement with younger children. 
  • Our camp locations. Campers enjoy access to indoor and outdoor spaces allowing for a variety of activities and experiences.
  • Our hands-on, minds-on activities. We create a fun environment that is rich in learning opportunities by involving campers in the creation of a multitude of  experiments and engaging projects each day.
  • That summer camp feeling. We balance projects and experiments each day with outdoor teams and skill-building and recreational activities to strike a balance between academic, social, and recreational pursuits. 
  • Locally owned! We have been proudly serving South Charlotte and Union County since 2015!
