2026-2027 School Day Off Camps

BadgerBots School Day Off Camps are filled with hands-on STEAM activities that spark curiosity, build excitement and cultivate a lifelong passion for STEAM.

These camps are designed for students in grades K-6, with the exception of GIRL-BOTS, which is for girls in grades 2-8. Our School Day Off Camps are held at our Middleton location at 7615 Discovery Drive, Middleton, WI 53562.

Many of our camps fill quickly, so early registration is encouraged! Please check your child's school calendar carefully as these camps do not align with all school district calendars. Information on extended care options will be available soon. 

Email Emily Luffey, Lead Educator, at eluffey@badgerbots.org with any camp questions. You can read our Accessibility and Individual Support guidelines here.
