Science Fun Full-Day Camp

Come spend an entire day at LHS in this exciting, weeklong, hands-on science camp. We will have fun exploring biology, chemistry, physics, and math; doing experiments; making projects; and solving math games and puzzles. Visits to the Botanical Garden, our local pond, and outside exhibits make the camp a good chance to experience science both indoors and out. (Campers need to bring their own lunch and snacks daily.)

Enrollment: 16 campers Full
Entering Grades 3–4

City Builders Full-Day Camp

Calling all architects and engineers! There’s more to building a city than blocks alone. Scale, size, planning, and creative use of reclaimed materials will help the group to design and build unique structures, bridges, parks, and more. We’ll supply the materials to put together a giant indoor city; you supply the creativity! (Campers need to bring their own lunch and snacks daily.)

Exhibits

  • Sunstones
    This 18-foot granite sculpture on the Hall’s back lawn can function as an astronomical tool.
  • nanozone logo
    Think of the smallest thing you can make. A tiny paper airplane? A knot in a string? Now think of making something millions of times smaller. That’s what nanotechnology is about.
