Event Overview
Day four focused on physics and Earth science. Campers designed penny boats to test buoyancy and determine how much weight their creations could hold before sinking. They also created compasses and learned about magnetism and navigation. Through experimentation and testing, students developed a stronger understanding of engineering design principles.


Campers explored buoyancy and navigation through engineering challenges.
