ROME, NY — The Air Force Research Laboratory Information Directorate’s (AFRL/RI) STEM Outreach Program, in partnership with the Griffiss Institute (GI), is proud to once again offer STEM Summer Camp programs to students, in grades 5-12.

With the uncertainties of COVID-19, the summer camp experience will be different this year. How can you give your STEM enthusiast an absorbing, structured summer experience without sending him or her to an in-person camp? This year, we are offering Virtual STEM Summer Camps, using Zoom Video Conferencing.

Our STEM Summer Camps will engage your child in new and exciting experiences this summer! Kids imagine, collaborate, explore and create, all while learning super cool STEM skills that will help them in school and in life!
