Inspire a passion for science in your child! New activities every year, over 40 locations and four different kinds of Camp Invention programs in Minnesota!

Kids participate in each of these activities every day:

I Can Invent: Fantasy Inventions and Complicated Machines III - Use real tools to take apart old appliances and see how they work, then create a model of your own invention. Older campers participate in a Rube Goldberg team challenge that starts a (safe) explosion.
Hatched! – Help save a virtual world and become an entrepreneur in the avatar marketplace.
SMArt: Science, Math, and Art – Explore "cool math" like tessellations, fractals, and more!
Power'd – Discover how to use natural energy sources and build your own motorized pet.
Global Games - Children explore cultures from across the world as they play games from far away lands, recreate history and are challenged to work together.

Directed and taught by qualified local educators, Camp Invention is a national, non-profit STEM enrichment program from Invent Now Kids in partnership with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

The Minnesota Youth Golf Camp offers two programs, one for beginning and intermediate golfers and one for advanced golfers. All campers will stay in the dormitories on campus at St. Olaf College. They will enjoy three meals a day from our top-ranked cafeteria. The programs differ only in the actual golf training regimen, and the number of rounds played on the 18-hole championship course at the Summit Golf Course. All golfers will join in nightly small group discussions, board games, outdoor activities, games, movies, and other fun activities. At the Minnesota Youth Golf Camp, we incorporate friendship and integrity into
golf to revamp the whole person.

This performance-based experience will challenge and encourage you to stretch your musical abilities. Everyone participates in at least one large ensemble (band, choir, or orchestra); participation in a second large ensemble is possible, as well. You will complete your day by attending the elective classes you choose. Two private lessions are included with camp tuition.
This music camp is located at St. Olaf College, in historic Northfield, Minnesota, 40 miles south of the Twin Cities metro area. The St. Olaf music program has a strong reputation here and abroad. The music department's acclaimed faculty will conduct the band, choir, and orchestra.
