Welcome to Game Camp USA by Convergenesis, Inc. (est. 2006)

Game Camp USA is a program specifically designed for gamers, especially those considering careers in interactive entertainment. As such, it makes extensive use of gaming PCs and consoles. But the campers do more than play video games; they also learn to create them.

Like other formats of narrative art, video games tell stories using words, images and sounds. Unlike other formats however, they also include rules, challenges and interactions. Development of these unique elements, collectively known as game mechanics, is the focus of the curriculum.

Played competitively are video games in the fighting, first-person shooter, racing and real-time strategy genres; and while participation is optional, the prizes make it well worth the effort.

What could be better than 2 whole weeks filled with gaming? Prove to others that your hobby is more than a weekend pastime, and apply your gaming interest to learn about the different aspects of creating professional, best-selling video games. 2-week overnight program for Teens, held at prestigious universities nationwide (see below). iD Gaming Academy guarantees small class sizes (max 8:1) taught by top-tier instructors who have degrees in the field and impressive backgrounds in professional game development, game programming, and character design. Ages 13-18 learn personalized curriculum with a small group of peers to optimize learning and social experiences.

Discover a gaming career while interacting with industry professionals and building a portfolio for college. There’s never been a better or more important time to engage in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) education. Plus, you’ll have plenty of free time to battle it out against others in gaming tournaments with Team Fortress 2 and play other games like Portal 2, Half-Life 2, Left for Dead 2, and more. Accredited Continuing Education Units are also available from Stanford or Villanova to demonstrate that you’ve completed course content with college level difficulty.

Imagine a day camp that is designed to offer children a choice of many different science themes. Themes which include experiments and projects in Video Game Creation, Robotics, Veterinary Medicine, Crime Scene Investigation, Culinary Science, Paleontology, Engineering, Space, Biology, Chemistry, Oceanography, Nursing, and much more.
Now imagine that the day camp really exists and for 13 years has been providing an opportunity for young people to see how science works in the real world.
At Club Scientific, we believe that every child is a scientist. Our vision is to make them better scientists by offering 21 unique science day camps. Our camps inspire interest in science and nature by involving children in the creation of a multitude of take-away projects in each camp.
Our goal is for kids to have fun and get excited about science. Club Scientifics' summer day camps rely on the expertise of visiting professionals. For example, campers will meet and learn from actual veterinarians, crime scene investigators, and local law enforcement officials in Camps CSI, RN, and Emergency Vet.
The camp day is divided into four major time slots which includes two extended sessions of science projects and experiments. The third session is an outdoor component which involves skill building and teamwork. The fourth major component is comprised of alternating science, craft, skill building, and outdoor recreational activities. Club Scientific tries to strike a balance between academic, social, and recreational pursuits.
Our camps specialize in hands-on, minds-on activities for children ages 4-14.
Science was never this much fun!
