At 4-H Electric Camp, you will explore the world of energy, electricity, and the basic sciences in fun-filled, “hands-on” learning centers. This year’s learning centers feature the following:

• Station 1 – Electric Lamp – Electric lamps give us light. In this learning center, you will take a lamp kit and some electric insulators and make an electric lamp that will bring light to your room.
  
• Station 2 – Wind Energy Generation – Wind energy will be essential in future electricity supplies. This learning center will teach you how to design wind turbines to harness the energy in the wind to generate electricity efficiently.
  
• Station 3 – Robotics – Robots were once only seen in science fiction movies; however, today, robots are used to do many tasks. In this learning center, you will see the latest robot technology and then try your hand at programming a robot to perform a specific task.
  
• Station 4 – Home Energy Conservation – We use electricity to light our home, cook food, play music, and operate televisions. But as we use more electricity in our homes, our electric bills rise. In this activity, you will learn how conserving electricity in your home not only helps to lower your electric bill but also helps to preserve our environment.
  
• Station 5 – Electric Vehicles – Many car manufacturing companies are today producing electric vehicle. Some EVs have a battery instead of a gasoline tank and an electric motor instead of an internal combustion engine to power the vehicle. Others use a combination of gasoline and an electric motor to power the vehicle. In this learning center, you will learn about the latest technology in electric vehicles.
  
• Station 6 – Electrical Safety – Electric power does tremendous work for us, but we must be careful around it because it is such a powerful force. This learning center will teach you how to play safely around high-voltage power lines.
