Summer Science Splash Camp
Summer Science Splash Camp is a week-long residential summer camp funded by the II-IV Foundation and hosted by the Science in Motion on the campus of Juniata College. Spend your day performing experiments in the lab and outdoors using the same high-tech equipment college students and research scientists use. During free time enjoy water activities, tennis, swimming, and other splashing competitions. At night, play games or sports, watch movies or talk with new friends. Between daily experiments and nightly events, work with your team to gain points for prizes.
