☀️ Harness Solar Power – Build and test your own solar-powered devices!
💨 Catch the Wind – Design and experiment with wind turbines to see how air can generate electricity.

🛠️ Master Soldering Skills – Get hands-on with tools to build your very own take-home electrical project.
💡 Think Like an Engineer – Collaborate on fun challenges that blend creativity with real-world problem-solving!

👩‍🔬 No prior experience needed! Just bring your curiosity, and we’ll provide the rest—including all materials and expert guidance.

Every camper will leave with a custom-built project and a certificate of completion! Youth that participate in these workshops will also learn about NC 4-H Electric Congress and how to earn the opportunity to attend this exciting, all expenses paid event sponsored by N.C.
