2026 Summer Camps

BadgerBots camps are week-long, half-day experiences filled with hands-on STEAM activities that spark curiosity, build excitement and cultivate a lifelong passion for STEAM. Many of our camps connect and build on one another as students develop new skills.

If you’re not sure where your child should start or how to build on what they did last summer, our camp pathways are a great place to begin. Organized by grade range, these pathways help you explore camp options, understand how programs connect and choose a learning path that fits your child’s interests and experience level.

Our camps are designed for students entering 1st through 8th grade in the fall of 2026 and are held at three locations—Middleton at BadgerBots, Madison at Wingra School and Fitchburg at EAGLE School—from June 15 through August 21, 2026.

For students enrolled in both a morning and afternoon camp, the lunch hour is included at no additional cost. For students attending a single half-day camp, families may add extended AM care (which includes supervised lunch and outdoor play) for $75 per week or extended PM care (late pick-up) for $75 per week. Each option is priced separately.

Many of our camps fill quickly each summer, so early registration is encouraged.

Email Melinda McLaughlin, Director of Education, with any summer camp questions at mmclaughlin@badgerbots.org. You can find our summer camp policies, including cancellations, grade requirements, wait lists and more, here.

Camp Pathways

These pathways show how BadgerBots camps connect and build on one another based on your child’s interests. Whether your child is excited about coding, robotics, AI or eventually joining a robotics team like FIRST LEGO League, the pathways highlight recommended starting points and next steps as skills grow. Use this guide to explore camp options, understand how camps relate and choose a learning path that fits your child’s grade, curiosity and experience level.
