VAN WERT, OHIO (6-24-26) – Northwest State Community College will be hosting three day camps this July at the newly renovated Van Wert Campus. These camps give young minds a chance to engage in STEM coding & online gaming in a safe environment.

Kicking off with “Swing into STEM” day on Friday, July 10th, campers will create their own mini golf holes using LEGO SPIKE Essential, a program designed for introductory coding. This creates a hands-on design process full of creativity & competition!

SPIKE Robotics will follow the week after, taking place on Friday, July 17th. Using FIRST LEGO League programming, campers will team up to program and build robots, competing to be the best bot. This day is great for an introduction to the world of robots!

Wrapping up this summer is Van Wert Vortex ESports Gamer Camp, taking place on Friday, July 31st. Campers will spend the day engaged in age-appropriate games, like Mario Kart & Super Smash Bros, along with LEGO building competitions and more!
