Do you want your kid (s) to learn skills AND have fun this summer? Have them join us for a week of exciting woodworking projects!
About this Event

The Tinkering School of the Ottawa Tool Library is offering a one-week camp for 9-12 year olds to learn woodworking and other DIY skills by building a series of different projects over the course of the week.

Camp runs from 9 am - 3 pm daily.

Our instructors bring a vast experience in teaching kids and will always focus on safety in the WorkSpace and with each other.

Participants will be able to customize and construct a variety of projects while learning about design factors including measuring and marking, cutting, drilling, routing, sanding, gluing, and screwing. Everyone will make something they'll feel proud of and leave with the knowledge to build more!

Space is limited to eight participants with one instructor and assistant.

If you're not a member of the Ottawa Tool Library, check out the benefits that come with a membership here. Please note that we're extending a 10% discount to our OTL annual membership holders.

Note:

The OTL Tinkering School is committed to providing a safe and enjoyable learning experience for all.

The project that will be made each week of Tinkering Summer Camp will be the same. We thank you for your interest in signing up for multiple weeks for your child but the content repeats.

Before selecting and signing up for this camp, please be sure that your child understands that the activities will require their attention and maturity. We are working with tools that must be used carefully to ensure everyone’s safety. If you have any questions, please contact us([email protected]).

Make sure this camp date works for your family. Refunds will not be issued unless you find someone to take your child's spot with our approval.
