Students in grades six through nine joined the Purdue Computer Science Department for the annual CS Summer Camp. It was fun times as the campers got to know each other and the field of computer science. They engaged in activities around campus, programming exercises, and a fun night on the town.

Beginner Camp kicked off on June 15 with 28 participants. They participated in ice breaker activities, a campus scavenger hunt, and a lesson in Windows Movie Maker on day one of camp. They learned programming in Alice on day two, and went for pizza and a movie that night. Day three of camp was dedicated to Lego robotics where students built and programmed their robots in small groups. The finished products then competed on the final day of camp during the Lego Challenge.

Eighteen advanced campers arrived on campus June 18. They also started camp with ice breaker activities, a campus scavenger hunt, and a lesson in Windows Movie Maker. Campers went into an Alice Frenzy on day two where they learned more advanced usage of the Alice programming language. That night campers went for pizza, billiards, and bowling for fun night. Day three ushered in Cybernetic Showdowns and Pico Crickets where campers developed projects merging design and technology.
