2027 STEAM Summer Camps
Hack Your Child’s Summer With STEAM!
Open to both Scouts and non-Scouts, TechLab – our premiere STEAM camp – provides fun, engaging, hands-on exploration of science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics unlike anything your child has done in school!
Summer 2027 camp dates (coming soon)

Our theme this year is “Rainforest.” Animals in the Amazon use a mud bath or shady spot under a tree canopy to stay cool, but you’ll be able to beat the summer heat attending our camp inside Anderson High School’s Applied Technology Center.
This camp is open to both Scouts and non-Scouts in 3rd-9th Grades.
“(My son) has implemented some of the subjects he learned at camp, in school and every day life. He has taken an even greater interest in technology because of his experience in camp.” – Alma, Parent
“Attending this camp lets me to work on things that I don’t usually get to do, like robotics and film making.” – Joaquin, Camper
“My oldest son had an amazing time last year! He came home raving and wanting to go back every night.” – Heather, Parent
Austin’s Premier STEAM Summer Camp
TechLab camps are open to both Scouts and non-Scouts.

3rd-5th Grade (Bears and Webelos) campers will try their hands at toy design, robotics, digital media, movie making, physics, geology, programming, and more – all with fun outdoor games and physical activities that satisfy creative minds and build friendships. Plus these Scouts can complete multiple Adventures and Nova Awards!
6th-9th Grade (Scouts BSA) campers will explore topics like design, robotics, programming, digital media, movie making, geology, environmental science, and more. While doing so, campers won’t hear a lecture; they will ask the questions and use their imagination (and our tools) to find the answers. Plus these Scouts can earn multiple merit badges!
Camp attendees use tools like:
- DSLR cameras
- laser cutters/engravers
- 3D printers
- robotics kits
- hydrology display boards
- Adobe Creative Suite and Labview software
Detailed camp information is available at www.techlab.camp
