Topeka, Kan. – It’s never too early to be an Ichabod! Young Topekans, and those from surrounding communities, can spend time celebrating the power of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) this July. The focus of this camp is to inspire curiosity, innovation and discovery while empowering future generations to solve tomorrow's challenges.
For the past eight years, Washburn University’s Education Department has hosted this camp for students entering 7th or 8thgrade. This year, the university will offer the full-day camp (lunch and snacks provided daily) at no cost to participants the week of July 7 – 11 or July 14 – 18, 2025 on the Washburn campus. Visit washburn.edu/stem-camp for more information. Completed applications are due by May 30, 2025. For questions, contact Dr. Cherry Steffen at cherry.steffen@washburn.edu or 785-670-1943.
For children with other interests, Washburn has opportunities available this summer in the areas of art, athletics, career exploration and music. Learn more about all the camps being offered at https://www.washburn.edu/about/community/children.html.
