What is Blastoff?
BlastOff camp is a free week-long science summer day camp for middle school students coming from what are considered underprivileged backgrounds or low-income/socioeconomic schools in Tucson. BlastOff! camp provides middle schoolers the opportunity to gather and spend a week engaging in scientific exploration across a variety of disciplines under the guidance of university volunteers. These activities have been specifically designed to challenge students in scientific inquiry and understanding, while also being fun and mentally engaging. The goal of this program is to provide a fun, in-depth, and educational experience for middle-schoolers, who otherwise would not have this kind of opportunity. Due to our target audience, there is no cost to attend, and lunches/snacks will be provided. The only requirement is that a guardian drop-off and pick up the camper each day.
