Children ages 5 to 12 can explore and discover the arts and sciences in our fun and engaging weeklong S.T.E.A.M. Summer Camp.  Each day will focus on the exciting and educational exploration of one the letters in S.T.E.A.M.-Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics.  Camp attendees will also have the opportunity to tie dye a Hands On! tee shirt as well as explore the museum and the 30+ exhibits including a Guinness Record holding Tesla Coil show, climbing in a 3-story Paleontology tower, and exploring our Pollinator Garden!  Space is VERY limited to ensure safety, register early to secure a spot. 

All attendees MUST pre-register.  We are unable to accommodate walk-ups.

Ages: Campers MUST be 5 years old by June 1, 2025, and no older than 12 years old on July 30, 2025.

Late pick-up is available between 4:30 and 5:30pm.

HODC received grant funding from GSK to support extended programming for 2025 summer camps and therefore late pick-up is at no cost for this year.  Space is limited.  GSK’s Be a Health Scientist! program invites children to take the role of scientists and engineers as they investigate problems related to human health and well-being. The activities encourage scientific practices like making observations and testing hypotheses.
