Youth Camp this summer
Date: 7.25.2016
Campers design and build a product experiencing the start to finish satisfaction of creating something they can show off with pride. Throughout the process, they learn how to do CAD design and operate various kinds of manufacturing machinery under the close supervision of expert manufacturing trainers.
They will also tour local manufacturing facilities learning what kinds of jobs exist, what skills and training are required, and how those businesses developed. Campers will learn from local manufacturing company owners how they started their businesses, apply basic entrepreneurship principles to understand how a single product idea becomes a business.
Nuts, Bolts, and Thing-a-ma-jigs will run from 8 a.m. until 2 p.m. for five days on July 25 through 29, 2016. Cost for camp is $60 per camper with lunch included. This camp is designed for middle and high school students ages 13 to 18. Camp is held at the Chippewa Valley Technical College Manufacturing Education Center.
