ExxonMobil Bernard Harris Summer Science Camps.
The EMBHSSC is a living/learning summer community of
students, teachers, and scientists working together to
help youth follow their dreams by encouraging science education
for tomorrows leaders.
In 2010 and 2011, the University of Wyoming hosted 10-day EMBHSSCs.
The announcement date for 2012 camps is February 15.
Prior to 2010, we hosted "Wyoming Astrocamp", a similar residential
summer science camp for middle school students.
Our theme is "Astrocamp: Journey to the Stars".
Camp is open to all students
who are entering 6th, 7th or 8th grade.
