Due to extraordinary circumstances, no Action Potential Science Experience camps will be available for the summer of 2008.

All the camps will be on hiatus while a new director and staff evaluate, upgrade, and develop new programs and procedures.

The Eberly College of Science is fully committed to restarting the summer science camp program in the summer of 2009.

This web site will provide updates as they become available. We expect that the registration process for the 2009 camps will be active by December 2008.

Make sure to bookmark this page and check back in fall 2008 for more information.

If your children like exploring the world around them and making new friends, they'll treasure science experiences in the summer of 2009.

No matter which camp(s) they take part in, your child(ren) will conduct hands-on experiments in Penn State laboratories under the careful guidance of experienced educators.

We will be ready to welcome your child(ren) to an exciting science experience in the summer of 2009!
