Robo Camp with Darkside Robotics
A STEM-oriented camp will be held at Discovery World on Market in the near future.
"So Darkside Robotics is a high school robotics team, and we compete each year, um, usually twice in competitions with teams from around the world. As part of our work throughout the year when we're not competing, we seek to outreach to, uh, youth and into the community, mainly around the idea of STEM education. So we have partnered for the last three years with Discovery World on Market in Parkersburg to offer camp programs for typically middle school into early high school age range."
"They'll meet one time in the middle of the month to think about and learn how to design mechanisms for the robot. So they can either use 3D printers or they can use common materials to, to build things like scoops or like a forklift or whatever they want to use to move things around on our game board."
