Seeking 48 exceptional future scientists to begin the learning adventure this summer!
A two-week, FULLY funded, middle school science camp will be held in Corvallis this summer.

"This is an incredible opportunity to attend a college quality camp experience! We will offer innovative programs to enhance middle school students' knowledge in all areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM). We'll work in labs, visit researchers and teaching professors, travel to the Oregon coast and the Cascade Mountains and enjoy a wide range of recreational options as well. While teaching subject matter skills, we're also encouraging students to stay in school and fostering leadership and citizenship. Students will live in the dorms with their assigned "camp family" including high school, college and adult staff."

We are seeking 48 exceptional future scientists to begin the learning adventure this summer! Students are invited to apply for this two-week residential camp, to be held Aug. 5-16, 2008.  The full cost of the camp’s education program, field trips, food and lodging will be covered by a scholarship for those students selected to participate.  The application deadline is March 7, 2008.
