Super Scientists!

What is science? What do scientists do? Students become “super scientists” as they learn about the habits of a scientist and the different fields of science!  Each day is a different science day. Budding physicists will explore the properties of matter and explore the chemistry of bubbles and slime. Engineers of tomorrow will learn about light energy and get a close up look at Kopernik's telescopes to safely observe the sun. Young engineers will get moving and create their own Rube Goldberg machines. Youthful astronomers will learn about the night sky and step into the Kopernik Planetarium to journey in the Solar System. They will build, create, and imagine their way through science this week.

KOSC Summer Camp Registration Basics:

• KOSC Members get a 15% discount on STEM Summer Camps. Memberships can be purchased directly during registration.




• Early Bird Tuition is available through May 31. Add $20 when registering after May 31.




• Early drop off (8 am) and late pick up (4 pm) are available for an additional $20/day. This can be added during initial registration or closer to the camp's start date.




• Camps have a maximum enrollment and many fill quickly each year. Register early and avoid the waiting list.




• Refunds are available (less a $15 administration fee) if a student withdraws 14 days prior to the start of camp. No refunds are provided for cancellations within the 13-day window prior to camp. In case of cancellation due to insufficient enrollment, participants will be notified one week in advance and will receive a full refund.




• At checkout, there is an option to pay by check, if preferred. When sending a check, please make it out to Kopernik Observatory & Science Center and include a note specifying where the funds should be applied (especially for those registering for multiple camps). Checks must be sent to Kopernik at the time of registration and pay for the camp in full. Please contact Kopernik directly with questions or concerns.




• Some camps offer two sessions, designated Session A and Session B. Please note that the curriculum in each session is identical.




• A welcome email will be sent approximately one week before the first day of camp providing specifics on the class and a letter from the teacher.
