We make science camps fun! YSI summer camp culture is infused with games that foster social skills and playful science camp activities that bring YSI summer camp spirit to life! All of our Summer Science Camps incorporate hiking, games, and arts & crafts, and feature special programs with our live animal ambassadors.

Most importantly, our exceptional summer camp staff makes our summer camps special. We carefully screen and interview to get high quality summer camp staff. Our team includes passionate college students, classroom teachers, and full-time YSI educators. Our summer camp staff receives training to ensure child safety, content knowledge, and customer service. Our summer camp staff strives to provide personal instruction to campers and most of our science camps provide a staff to camper ratio of 1:7. All YSI summer camp staff carry dedicated cell phones during each camp day for prompt communication, if needed.
