Camp Invention STEM Science Camps - Spark Aug 3-7
National Inventors Hall of Fame, with a mission of inspiring invention, creativity and innovation is bringing Camp Invention to Hopkinton this summer! They offer a confidence-boosting STEM summer camp where kids build creative inventions and lasting friendships. Led by qualified local educators, their camps offer new and exciting hands-on experiences every year with over 1,000 camp programs that run nationwide in schools, community centers and other local facilities.Week 1 (Aug 3-7): Spark (full description in flier below)
The Infringers™
Campers team up with the Innovation Force® - National Inventors Hall of Fame® Inductees – to unlock the superpowers of the I Can Invent® Mindset and solve challenges in their community and around the world! Campers design and miniaturize a top-secret invention, create a wearable device that incorporates cryptography and explore security features like reCAPTCHA to protect their ideas from The Infringers, who are duplicating inventions. Next, campers race to file a patent to protect their intellectual property.
Fur-ensics™
Students sharpen their detective skills as they discover how real-life investigators use forensic tools to help solve crimes. Inspired by the inner mechanics of their robotic capybara sidekick, students use creative problem-solving skills to create sleuthing gadgets, collect evidence and explore the science behind analyzing fingerprints, DNA and more. Finally, they design an innovative costume for their capybara to wear at the biopark’s biggest social event, the Masquerade Fur Ball, to locate the prankster before another “faux-paw” is committed!
Make Waves™
Campers catch their first big break as they ride the waves of entrepreneurship and invention. Inspired by surfboard innovations, they create prototypes to take to market, practice persistence to hook investors and design an eye-catching logo for their company. After conducting hands-on buoyancy experiments, campers draw inspiration from billboard advertisements to create their own billboard boats, setting sail to reach their target audience and “make waves” in the market.
Space Morphers™
Students stretch their imagination, build a DIY space rocket and launch a mission to terraform a new planet’s atmosphere, terrain and ecosystem. After collecting data and samples in a Rover Race, they hatch a mysterious animal egg, grow a crystal tree and record scientific observations in the Space Lab. As they use their creativity and problem-solving skills to create a model of a planet to support life and future exploration, they glean inspiration from space innovations to build their own solar-sail-like prototype to keep a satellite orbiting their planet. Students complete their space mission by launching a device that will continue to monitor their planet from back on Earth.

Mindfulness Meditation - Mindfulness Meditations
Meditation is best when used daily while living our lives. The techniques taught in this class will start with raising your awareness of mind/body/breath connection. We will use these techniques and instructions to move our energy and essence to bring in the wholeness of who you truly are instead of focusing on letting go of who you aren’t. As you bring in your truth, what is not your truth naturally moves and transforms. This creates a life-changing shift in perspective from the inside (your beliefs) to the outside actions you take to create the life you desire.If you missed a class, feel free to listen to Caroline's recorded meditation at: www.bearclanllc.com/meditation Mondays8:50-9:25 AM (doors open at 8:45 am)Slusser Center Wellness Room(no class on the holidays)This program is geared for adults 50+ and is free of charge.

Mindfulness Meditation - Mindfulness Meditations
Meditation is best when used daily while living our lives. The techniques taught in this class will start with raising your awareness of mind/body/breath connection. We will use these techniques and instructions to move our energy and essence to bring in the wholeness of who you truly are instead of focusing on letting go of who you aren’t. As you bring in your truth, what is not your truth naturally moves and transforms. This creates a life-changing shift in perspective from the inside (your beliefs) to the outside actions you take to create the life you desire.If you missed a class, feel free to listen to Caroline's recorded meditation at: www.bearclanllc.com/meditation Mondays8:50-9:25 AM (doors open at 8:45 am)Slusser Center Wellness Room(no class on the holidays)This program is geared for adults 50+ and is free of charge.
