ROCKETRY

Future Stars Rocketry Camp is an unforgettable week of hands-on engineering where students design, 3D print, and assemble their very own model rockets capable of soaring nearly 300 feet into the sky. Throughout the week, campers explore the science of aerodynamics and propulsion, learning how shape, weight, and thrust come together to achieve flight.

Campers create and test parachute recovery systems to ensure safe landings and get to take their rockets home. The highlight of the week is a field trip to a professional rocket launch site, where campers safely launch their custom creations and watch their hard work soar into the sky.

Expert instruction meets real engineering, so they come home eager to keep building and experimenting.

All campers are grouped according to age and ability.
