See You Next Summer!

The Lancaster Science Factory is celebrating 17 years of providing the best hands-on STEM Summer Camps in Lancaster County (and beyond)!
Thank you for a great summer 2025! We offered 37 camps across 10 weeks serving almost 600 campers. Until next summer, be sure to check out our hands-on STEM classes, Girls Code Club, and day camps!

Registration for Summer 2026 will begin in February.

 

 


Camp Guidelines and Scholarship Information.

  • Please review camp descriptions and grade-level requirements carefully. Campers who do not meet grade-level requirements will have their registrations cancelled. 
  • A limited number of scholarships are available. Click here to download the scholarship application. 
  • Please disclose any physical limitations, allergies, learning, or behavioral issues on your registration form. This is helpful to our education staff to ensure that your child has a successful and safe week of camp!
  • Camp registration includes 3 hours of camp instruction and activities daily and supervised breaks on the Lancaster Science Factory exhibit floor.
  • Registration for each camp is limited and will be closed when maximum registration is reached or one week prior to the beginning of camp, whichever comes first.
  • Campers may be dropped off no earlier than 15 minutes before the start of camp. They must be picked up no later than 15 minutes after the end of camp.
  • Photo ID is REQUIRED to pick up a camper. The person MUST appear on the approved pick-up list provided by the parent or guardian at registration.
  •  Cancellations (by the registrant) received less than one week prior to day one of camp will be subject to a refund of 1/2 of the total registration cost for that camp. Cancellations received prior to that shall receive a full refund. Camps canceled by the Lancaster Science Factory for ANY reason will be refunded fully.
