Event Description

Join us July 27-31 for an exciting week of Academy Explorers Summer Camp.

This week's theme is Slimy Science. Wiggle with worms and squirm with salamanders to inspire your inner scientist with these icky, slimy experiments.

  • FIELD TRIP: Explore the pond and stream ecosystems in Gladwyne, PA. You’ll go searching for insects, crustaceans, fish, and amphibians that are adapted for life in the water.
  • Experiment with your very own hand-made slime.
  • Can you survive the wetlands? Find out during a game of “It’s a Frog’s Life.”
  • Begin your own composting kit and create a worm’s paradise.
