Trapped: Engineers Escape RoomSLAMGr 3-8 Can you escape before time runs out? In this high-energy engineering escape room experience, campers are dropped into daring scenarios like a hijacked plane, an underground cave, or a locked playroom without ever leaving the classroom. Working in teams, students build straw rockets, parachutes, catapults, flashlights, and code robots to solve puzzles and beat the clock. As the week progresses, campers also design and test their own escape rooms, combining creativity, teamwork, and engineering problem-solving for an epic final challenge.Summer 2026 SLAM, Bloomington Youth and Adult Enrichment -
3D Printing: Design, Build, Race!SLAMGr 4-8 Start your engines and your imagination! In this hands-on 3D printing camp, students explore how engineers design, test, and improve vehicles. Campers will create two types of cars—a self-powered car using stored mechanical energy and a DC motor–powered car—while learning the basics of 3D modeling, motion, energy, and aerodynamics. Using the engineering design process, students will test, refine, and race their designs from concept to final build.Summer 2026 SLAM, Bloomington Youth and Adult Enrichment -
