LEGO Engineering Challenge Camp at the YMCA

Sam is attending a Lego summer camp at our local YMCA this week. He'll be posting a daily journal of his experience there. Here's the description of this camp from our YMCA 2011 Summer Program Guide:

LEGO Engineering Challenge
Ages: 9-11
We team up with Play-Well TEKnologies to bring you Engineering Challenge with Lego. Build motorized machines, catapults, pyramids, demolition derby cars, truss and suspension bridges, buildings, and other construction projects. Explore concepts in physics, mechanical engineering, structural engineering, and architecture while playing with your favorite creation, including three hours of instruction per day and traditional camp activities such as arts and crafts and games.

Stay tuned for more of Sam's daily journal!
