I received a notice about
Lego Robotics Camp we are running this summer for children age 9 to 14. It will be running during the week of August 5th - 9th and August 19th-23rd at Knox Church in Waterloo. Our camp differs from most camps in that we are putting most of our focus on the exciting world of lego robotics. 
Full day camp for a week is $250 plus tax. Includes a free t-shirt. http://brickworksacademy.com/
 
 
As always if you know of a great LOW COST or FREE family event post it in the comments!
Keep Smiling!
