PC Codes is now offering our 5th year of technology summer camps for children in the Park City area. Our camps are designed to be engaging, hands-on, creative and fun. In our week-long sessions, students will learn about a concept in computer science, practice that concept, and work with other campers to create and display an end-of-week capstone project. We are able to differentiate our camps so that both beginners and experts will feel challenged and have fun. Our camps are designed for kids age 8-14.
Who we are: PC Codes is organized by career educators specializing in making computer science approachable and fun.
All summer camps will take place at the Shepherd of the Mountains Lutheran Church at the base of the Canyons Resort in Park City. (We are not affiliated with the church and our camps are nonreligious). You have the option of signing up for both morning and afternoon half-day camps and leaving your child with a lunch for the full day if you choose.

This camp is geared towards children ages 8 -14.
In this camp, we will blast off into exciting activities centered around the principles of flight. We will build compressed air rockets, hot air balloons, gliders, propeller models and wind tube copters. And with each project, we will be able to modify our designs to achieve greater height, better lift, or corkscrew turns. We will even design and 3D print our own rocket parts to soar to even greater heights and distances. If your child has a love of building, tinkering and all things flight, then join us for this camp. We have projects that will challenge novices and pros alike from ages 8 - 14.
In this Minecraft camp, we will learn how to use Redstone to make cool circuits that can trigger traps, move doors and play music - even cook chickens and vend snacks.
