SPI camps are fun! Minions campers explored Gru’s lab. Kids at Full STEAM ahead made kinetic art by dangling a pendulum between two rocking chairs and swinging it while enjoying tunes.

We are lucky to have such a great host partner enabling our use of its grounds so we can make this kind of youth enrichment happen each summer. Thanks to The Brown Family Environmental Center.
