The Calvin College Chem Camps are for 5th, 6th and 7th graders and are designed to make science entertaining and educational. Calvin professor Larry Louters includes lots of demonstrations and hands-on experiments during the course of the one-week camp. The middle school and junior high students get to "play" with slime, create explosions, melt cups and more, all in the name of science. 

Calvin will hold two more Chem Camps this summer. The next will be June 28-July 2 and the final Camp will be July 12-16. Spots remain in both camps. Call 616-957-6200 for more details.
