The discovery that happens at AMOS camps makes concrete, measurable contributions to student success, not only in the classroom environment, but in broader measures of youth development, maturity, and career success. Each week is filled with expert-designed STEAM programming to contribute to our campers’ interest in and understanding of concepts ranging from exploring our natural world, and computer programming to chemistry. In 2026 we are offering three camp age ranges: 1) rising kindergarten and first graders, 2) rising second and third graders, and 3) rising fourth and fifth graders. Registration for week-long packages begins January 12 and will be open through August 2. Registration for single days of camp will be available April 13 through August 6.
