Refuge Rescue 2009

Junior 4-H'ers from across the State got the chance to flex their robotic muscle as they participated in the first Junior 4-H Robotics camp. The camp was held in conjunction with the Senior 4-H Technology and Expressive Arts Camp. Junior 4-H'ers began their day by building robotic animals that mimicked animals in their natural environments. They also had the opportunity to create art from recycled computer parts, build solar power cars, and watch milk become ice cream! The ice cream was a tasty experiment on a hot summer day. They ended their day with an "explosive" activity that sent us all running. All in all, it was a great way to explore science, engineering, and technology. We'll see you next year!
