We are excited to share that applications for the upcoming Go Explore the Universe Camp (GETU) hosted on grounds at UVA's McCormick Observatory from June 10th-12th, 2026. This free camp is open to middle-school age kids (currently in 6th-8th grade) and involves three full days of hands-on astronomy based activities. The initial application deadline is Friday, May 6th, but we will review applications on a rolling basis as space allows. If you have any questions, please reach out to the camp directors, Dr. Beatrice Kulterer (UVA), Dr. Allison Costa (NRAO) and Prof. Ilse Cleeves (UVA) at [email protected].
