WHAT
WHAT
Our hands-on robotics camps are 4-day programs focusing on fundamental building and programming skills, games, and fun challenges. Each camp will provide information on age appropriate competitions and how to get involved and stay engaged in robotics. Camps are staffed by NASA ERC staff and college interns sponsored by the IV&V Program and the WV Space Grant Consortium, and hosted at partner sites across the state.
WHO
WHO
Our robotics camps are divided into two age groups:
Ages 6-8: Half-day camp (9AM - 12PM) – LEGO WeDo 2.0 and Coding Express
Ages 9-12: Full-day camp (9AM - 4PM) – VEX IQ and Aerial Drones
Space is limited, and we will cover the same material in each camp. We do not recommend signing up for two camps. The camps are a basic introduction to the platforms, so no experience is required. Coaches looking for guidance for more experienced students should reach out to schedule a coach/team training.

MARTINSBURG CAMP: We recieved an extremely high volume of form submissions for the July 22-25 camp in Martinsburg. Within a few minutes of registration opening, both camps in Martinsburg were full and had waitlists longer than we can possibly accomodate. As a result, registration for this camp has been closed altogether.
