A Solanco Robotics Summer Camp will be offered on Monday to Thursday, July 12 to 15, from 9 to 11 a.m. at Solanco High School, 585 Solanco Road, Quarryville. The camp is open to youths entering fourth through eighth grades.

The camp will introduce students to the foundations of robotics and coding. Campers will learn the basics of coding through block coding and will learn to create their own code to solve real-world problems. The campers will be using Vex coding in C++, Amazon Future Engineering CoderZ in Python and other robotics and coding resources.

Campers should be dropped off and picked up at the technology education entrance of the high school, which is on the south side of the school; signs will be posted. All campers and staff members will follow all current COVID safety and health procedures that are in place at the time of the camp.

The Solanco Robotics Camp serves as a fundraiser for the Solanco Robotics Competition teams as well as an avenue for younger students to learn about robotics, coding, computer science and other STEM fields.

There is a fee per student. For information about how to register, email Todd Brown at Todd_Brown@solancosd.org. Registration must be received by Friday, June 11, to guarantee a T-shirt.
