or any other sciences.... we have done space camp and sea camp in the past and I am looking for recommendations for the future.

We want camps that are serious about science and will not fill in time with videos/computer games.

Thanks.

Falls of the Ohio, right across the river from Louisville, Kentucky, holds summer geology camps that I've heard good things about. It's in a small town and there are hotels there (and very near larger Louisville, too). It's at a state park, but there are no cabins, etc. there. I don't really know if they have camping or not.....

Mammoth Cave probably has some summer camps, but I haven't checked on that.....

There are dinosaur digging camps offered out west. I can't think now who does these. It might be through Smithsonian and/or National Geo. They have family camps. There are a number of them. I'd try a search by summer paleontology digs or something like that....

Have fun!
