Scouts in Science

Camp Boddie | East Carolina Council | Summer 2027

Get ready for a week of discovery, innovation, and adventure at Camp Boddie as East Carolina Council presents Scouts in Science, a STEM-focused summer camp experience designed to challenge Scouts to think critically, solve problems, and explore the world around them through hands-on learning.

Throughout the week, Scouts will participate in exciting STEM-based activities including engineering challenges, robotics, environmental science experiments, water quality testing, space exploration programs, coding activities, and more. Campers will work together in patrols to complete experiments, design projects, and compete in campwide innovation challenges while enjoying the traditions and excitement of summer camp.

Scouts will also have the opportunity to earn a variety of STEM-related merit badges including Environmental Science, Engineering, Robotics, Programming, Electricity, Space Exploration, Oceanography, and Weather. Afternoon programs and evening activities will reinforce the theme through interactive competitions, scientific demonstrations, and patrol research projects.

Set against the backdrop of Camp Boddie’s coastal environment, Scouts in Science combines the adventure of Scouting with the creativity and excitement of STEM education to create an unforgettable summer camp experience.

Whether building bridges, launching rockets, programming robots, or studying the coastal ecosystem, Scouts will leave camp inspired to explore, experiment, and innovate.
