Tech Camp Overview

1. Our personalized project approach! 
    
2. The absolute highest quantity and quality of staff!
    
3. Customizable program schedules which are suitable for “full emersion” or a “variety approach”. You can choose to balance the day with a recreational period or remain in learning workshops to squeeze the most project time out of the week. You can even choose to let your family sleep in this summer and still not miss camp!  Your summer, Your choice!
    
4. “Let the world be my teacher!” Open Source technology takes advantage of the web 2.0 world we live in! Your child can become savvy to the latest trends of the industry and can immediately become a contributor! Open Source (and all the software we use at camp) is Free. Once your child is inspired to tap into the power of Open Source your child’s self-learning continues after camp without you spending thousands on software! The world is shifting and students who know the Open Source and web 2.0 application are moving to the front of the pack because Open inspires innovation.
    
5. Owner-on-site! Your camp experience and customer service will be provided for and supervised by our professional camp director with 20 years camp administration experience; not by a seasonal director, a sales person, a college kid, or faceless national company. The TechWise founder / director has decades of experience running youth summer camp programs with social and educational outcomes. Meet our leader and learn why the best summer enrichment program is in your own backyard.
    
6. Fun! We hire a Recreational Specialist to facilitate the recreational periods of the day. (Most camps ask the instructors to also lead outdoor times). Our focus on “fun” is not just a break from the learning day it’s an intentional part of the camp experience!
    
7. Think Globally, Learn Locally! We know you want your child to be competitive in a global economy… but you don’t have to drive far to give them the very best summer enrichment. Our convenient community locations offer top-notch workshops & learning in the safety of a child’s most comfortable setting. At TechWise we look for facilities that offer youth appropriate and enriching atmosphere and of course a reasonable sized campus. 
    
8. Turn on the fundamentals! By marrying the STEM subjects to the exciting interest areas that have evolved from them we give kids the building blocks for innovation.
    
9. Camp TechWise gets an outside opinion. To give our customers the utmost confidence in our operations and program quality, in our inaugural year for each new market Camp TechWise will partner with the American Camps Association to conduct a site visit for accreditation. In 2009, each of our new programs will be visited.
