Tinkering School NC
Tinkering School NC at Sun Star Farm is a small group of 12 campers led by 2 counselors and a 3rd counselor during peak building times. Once they cover skills and safety, campers collaborate to create an awesome large-scale project based on a theme chosen late Monday/Tuesday morning, depending on skill level, interest, and weather conditions. They use impact drivers, cordless drills, levels, measuring tapes, and other basic carpentry hand tools. Each camper is given safety glasses and ear muff hearing protection. Every day, they mix in group games, visit farm animals, explore the farm, play water games, and go down the water slide to keep cool.
They save 4 spots for girls during the registration period, so they end up with a nice ratio of boys to girls. If any of the “girl” spots are not taken by March 1st, they open them to boys on the waitlist. There is a 6:1 counselor-to-camper ratio. This camp is for children ages 9-12.
Camp is $499/week. Early care starts at 8am and is $35/week. Aftercare runs from 3pm-5:30pm and is $125/week. A monthly payment plan is available at checkout.
