Summer Week #5 June 24th - June 28th @ Octane Raceway Scottsdale
Masters: Minecraft Modding
In this coding-centric Minecraft program, campers will approach a variety of in-game problems that require a mod (game modification) to overcome. Make chickens rain from the sky to distract the baddies and construct your own Minecraft car to drive through your world. Even Minecraft veterans will love our fully integrated modding interface that can be opened and used directly in the game itself. Our brand-new educational version of Minecraft is perfect for beginners and long-time players alike, stuffed to the brim with tutorials, late-game extensions, and quality-of-life features not found in mainstream Minecraft. Best of all, our campers will be playing on private servers with just the other kids in the room. *No Minecraft account is necessary to attend.
We're pleased to continue our partnership with Octane Raceway Scottsdale! Every week, campers will learn about various fields of engineering and science, enjoy adrenaline-fueled laps around the racetrack, immerse themselves in Velocity VR's free-roaming virtual worlds, and make new friends with fellow future STEM innovators. Camp enrollment includes one daily campers-only kart race. Campers will also partake in weeklong arcade access, a VR gaming session, and a laser tag battle at our sister location Mavrix next-door. All of these attractions are fully included with the cost of camp! (Campers must be a minimum of 54" to take part in all planned activities.)
