Renegade Summer Camp 2022


Girls only and Coed STEM camps with hands-on projects to rising 1st-5th graders. Join us for our 7th summer of fun! From the moment our club members arrive, they are surrounded by successful, smart, trailblazing role models who encourage them to pursue their love of science, exploration and building. We create a nurturing environment that focuses on building community with plenty of recess time for active bodies. Learn more about our day. 

What Campers Are Saying

My 6 yo daughter did two weeks of summer camp with Renegade Tinkering and loved it. She loved all the art, building, and messiness. Small group sizes are nice - especially for introverted kids like mine. Camp leaders were enthusiastic and friendly. I enjoyed hearing about the women scientists and engineers they learned about every day. - VB, parent
My not-usually-very-open-minded kindergartner LOVES Renegade Tinkering Camp! He goes weekly after school and loves it so much we signed up for spring break and summer camp. He gets so excited to show me the things he makes after each class, like gear boxes and mini-zip lines, and loves showing me how they work. This camp really stretches his mind and engages him, and he loves using his mind and hands to create. He also really likes his teacher. Big fans here! - LC, parent

Camp Themes

Creature Workshop
​​​Rising 1st-6th Grade

Connect with your inner Dr Frankenstein and create LIFE! Okay, maybe not ACTUAL life, but kids love creatures,both real and imaginary. Journey with the Renegades to investigate biology, biomimicry, armatures, gears, linkages, shapes, connections, mass and volume, materials properties, and lots of other STEM concepts (as well as their creativity and imaginations) by building their own tiny creatures in lots of different ways.
​

Science of Magic
​​​Rising 1st-6th Grade

Enchanted by Harry Potter? Spellbound by Wings of Fire or Percy Jackson and other Demigods? Always wanted your own dragon? Renegades tinker up magic to amaze their friends. Engineer magical devices and wands. Experiment with potions. Create magical creatures for care and keeping. Whether training as a witch, wizard, or magician, conjurors invent and practice a whole new bag of tricks.
​

Renegade Chemistry
​​​Rising 1st-6th Grade

Chemistry is the science that studies the foundations of our world. Investigating substances and the ways in which they interact, combine, and change can be magical. Through lots of accessible hands-on projects and creations, kids will explore this wonderfully fun, surprising, and engaging science, Renegade style. Fizzle, ooze, and transform with us this summer.
