What's covered?
At a recent meeting of the G.I. Luvmoney Investors Club, members listened to a presentation by inventor Sheldon Shamly. The club had invited Shamly to talk about a new investment opportunity based on his newest invention - the “Shamly Kinetic Neoperpetual Turbine.” Shamly claims that his new turbine can generate limitless clean energy using specially designed magnets. After listening to Shamley’s pitch, the club members were all enthusiastic about immediately investing the club’s assets in the Shamly device, all except one that is! Denny Dinero vetoed the club motion to invest with Shamly and vowed to thoroughly investigate the claims made by the inventor. Last week, on the day before the club meeting was to be held where he was to present his findings, Denny Dinero disappeared! It appears that he was abducted from the investment club’s clubhouse. The police fear the worst and they are stumped!
We need your junior forensic scientist to help unravel this tangled mystery! Your child will become a member of an investigative team that will discover and develop the vital evidence by studying it in the laboratory. The team will conduct a number of experiments on the evidence they find at the crime scene. They will relentlessly pursue any criminal activity they uncover during their investigation and bring the guilty parties to justice.
As a forensic scientist in training, your child will conduct hands-on experiments and meet with Penn State experts. S/he will gain new skills and knowledge and make new friends.
Campers are grouped according to age.

- Snacks and drinks will be provided each day during activity breaks.
