Thank you to those who participated in our camps this winter. The Fleet offers full-day camps in winter for kids in grades 1–3 both in-person and virtually for Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer. The in person camps take place at the Science Center, and are designed to include fun, educational, hands-on activities while incorporating the Fleet's general exhibit galleries.

Please view our Youth Programs Policies and FAQ for more information on reservation changes and fees.

In-Person Camps

We are continuing to operate in-person summer camps following the CDC and ACA safe camp and camper guidelines. To learn more about our program policies and FAQs regarding programs, please click here.

At the Fleet Science Center, we love to have hands-on experiences for all of our students in an environment that is positive, fun, and safe. Our in-person camps provide a space where students can have hands on learning alongside other students.

Expect the Unexpected Monday December 20 All science is methodical and predictable, right? Not in this program! Be wowed by science phenomena and how easily your senses can be tricked.
Try, Try, Try Again Tuesday December 21 Learn what it takes to be a scientist by testing, tweaking and retesting. Complete a variety of experiments and build a tall tower out of lightweight objects to see if you have what it takes.
Space Travelers Wednesday December 22 Campers will learn about optics such as long and short exposure photography, and light and color movement through prisms. This will help them better understand the filming techniques they'll need to direct their own mini- and stop-motion videos with friends.
