Summer is better when kids get to explore, create, and discover!
Destination Exploration’s summer camps bring STEM to life through hands-on activities like building, coding, experiments, and design challenges. Each week offers new themes, new skills, and new opportunities to try something different. No matter the theme, campers will get hands-on with 3D printing, chemistry experiments, coding, robotics, and design challenges.
Hosted on the ULethbridge campus, our camps provide a safe, welcoming environment where kids can learn, grow, and make new friends all summer long.
Registration is now open and spots fill quickly. Learn more and register: go.uleth.ca/DECamps
