Budding engineers will discover how simple machines work by building, testing, and creating playful engineering projects. Led by Trinity alumna Jenny Mulvey, campers will explore inclined planes, pulleys, levers, and wheels, building everything from flagpoles and catapults to spinning pinwheels.

By week’s end, students will put all they’ve learned to work designing and constructing their very own Rube Goldberg machines. Along the way, they’ll strengthen problem-solving skills, creativity, and perseverance.
