2025 Camps
This summer Challenger Colorado is proud to highlight engineering as the core concept for all of our camps. Through new camp names and new camp activities, our Engineering Pathfinder day-camps give young learners a chance to investigate, design, build, test, and even fail, in a low-pressure, team-focused and fun environment. All camps utilize a variety of materials from recycled craft items to programmable robots.
Campers should be registered for the grade they will be entering in the fall of 2025.
Register each camper separately.
REGISTRATION OPENS on Saturday, March 15th at 9:00am.

Engineering Rocketeers (Grades 4 - 6)Progressing through rocket builds, from snap together to design-your-own, campers discover the basics of launching a vehicle off the surface of our planet. Chemical reactions, fuel sources, launch and landing stages, team challenges, fun craft projects and more, will ignite these campers' interest in aerospace and boost their engineering skills throughout the process. (Formerly: Rocketry)
•4 Full-Day Sessions - Monday - Thursday - 8:30 am - 3:30 pm
•Early Bird Discount: $325 (March 15th - May 1st)

Engineering Defenders (Grades 5 - 7)Defenders are on a mission to protect Earth from rocky marauders traveling through the solar system. Campers will learn about celestial bodies and planetary science, while working together to conceptualize, design and build engineering concepts that aid in the protection of our planet.
•4 Full-Day Sessions - Monday - Thursday - 8:30 am - 3:30 pm
•1 Half-Day - Friday of each week from 8:30 am - 11:00 am at Challenger Colorado - 8717 Wolf Valley Drive (optional)

Engineering Pioneers (Grades 7 - 8)With a focus on Arduino programming & circuitry and 3D design & printing, campers will dive into engineering projects that help them identify and rule out where their engineering interests lie. This camp is perfect for students who are generally interested in an engineering and want to know more about the processes and materials used in software and coding for design.
•Campers will leave with their own SparkFun kit.
•5 Full Days - 8:30 am - 12:00 pm
•Early Bird Discount: $350 (March 15th - May 1st)
•Regular Pricing: $375 (after May 1st)
