Space Adventure Camp is a 6-day, 5-night residential camp experience at Wallops Island, Virginia, that combines introductory courses in robotic and aerospace academics with behind-the-scenes tours of aerospace facilities and traditional camp fun. Through this residential camp experience, students learn essential 21st-century STEM skills to become the innovators of tomorrow.
We also offer Advanced Camps is Aerospace, Coding, and Robotics.
Our unique location near NASA’s Wallops Flight Facility, the Navy’s Surface Combat System Center, and a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) facility provide a dynamic backdrop for the camp experience. Through partnerships with these agencies and other aerospace companies, field trips are built into the camp experience, providing students with a unique opportunity to meet and learn from experts in the STEM fields. Campers meet engineers and tour launch pads!
