2010 Camp Program
on-line Camp Registration
on-line Camp Payment
We are hoping to have our schedule for the 2010 year posted the
first week of January. We will be in Portland/Gorham/Bangor and
Orono and are working to be in Falmouth, Ellsworth, Readfield, and
Farmington as well.
Each camp has a maximum of 16 campers.
Each camp has at least two full time teachers.
Campers must be between 9* and 13 for the beginner camps
and 10* and 14 for the advanced camps
*(age at the time the week of camp starts)
If your child is 8 and will NOT be nine by the time camp starts then we cannot except
them into the program. We apologize for this inconvenience.
Camps run from 8:45 am until 3:30 pm Monday through Friday
One week of camp will be $245 for the 2010 season and includes morning and
afternoon snacks and a t-shirt. Lunch is a bag lunch which each camper must bring
with them.
Campers design, build and program robots during the week and the teachers help
them learn fundamentals of design, engineering, programming, and robotics.
The program is non-competitive and children work in groups of two (and occasionally
groups of three if they choose to). Each group works on projects and missions
assigned at the beginning of the day and continues through the day and into the
week. As they get more skills they have the opportunity to work on their own projects.
The advanced camp is for children who have already completed a week of camp or
have been a member of a FIRST LEGO® League team. The activities for these
camps require a more advanced understanding of the programming and building of
LEGO® robots.

Beginners Camp: Is for youth ages 9 to 13 and is designed for those who have little
or no LEGO Robotics experience. Older or more experienced campers are welcome
if this is the only week available and we try to match with a like-minded individual for
the week so they may work at a faster or in a more directed approach to a problem.
Mixed Camp: When we know there are youth with more experience in an area but
not enough to fill an advanced camp we will run a mixed camp. We try to work with
both novice and experienced campers so all can benefit.
Advanced Camp: Is for youth who are at least 10 at the time the camp begins and
have had prior LEGO robotics experience (RCX or NXT). It is also appropriate for 13
and 14 year olds without experience. Staff are able to spend less time on instruction
and more time mentoring the youth towards completion of more complicated tasks.
