Creating Contraptions! (Afternoon, August 11th through August 15th, 2025)

Did you know there are only six machines? No matter what the contraption is, or how it does The Thing, from building a car to splitting a log, there are only six simple machines doing the work. In this new camp, we will explore the six simple machines and create a bunch of toys and tools based on them! From a solar powered car to a weight driven catapult, we will be making a bunch of different mechanical marvels that show us why humans continue to innovate and create the technology that runs our amazing world.
