About Us: Math & Science Day Camp for Girls started in 2004 as a weekend camping experience. Five teachers taught fifteen students in one room at a campground facility. The days were filled with learning and the nights were filled with restless pre-teens. Although our first try at camp was good, we wanted to make it even better. We decided on a different format: Day Camp with many more hands-on exercises as well as plenty of breaks for students and teachers. We also moved the camp to a more "math and science oriented" facility- Kettering University. The second year of camp was a smashing success. Many students wanted to come back for a third day! We again followed the successful format in 2006 and enlarged camp to 32 students. In 2007 we will again expand camp by adding a third day of fun for the students! In March of 2007, Smarter Girls, an educational charity, was formed to position the camp for grants and other funding to allow us to expand with our needs.  |
