Testimonials
My daughter really enjoyed the Bosch tour, but her favorite was the Stimulators at Trident Tech. Particularly the babies, because she wants to be a pediatrician. She was fascinated with staying in a college dorm and all of the activities that were offered at CofC. She even made new friends while there. I truly enjoyed the Parent Information Session, it was the most informative session I have ever attended regarding my child’s education and her future. Thank you for a most wonderful experience. I have been waiting for this opportunity for what seems like forever, it was truly worth the wait and you all did not disappoint.
-April Haynes-Frasie, Mother of a camper
Girls Day Out is a amazing camp. It allow females of all ages to see that there is a place for women in STEM and I love it. It was a great experience. We got to attend a Bosch tour along with a tour of trident tech. We got to participant in some things like, checking vitals and doing blood work. We also got to hear a lot from the women in STEM. It was a great experience!!

Cyber Camp
Founded in 2011 our camp is run entirely by incredible, selfless volunteers. From NIWC employees to summer interns, our organization's mission is carried out through the hard work and dedication of individuals who volunteer their time and love to provide great experiences and memories for individuals who are interested in STEM. The annual Palmetto Cybersecurity Summer Camp is a 5-day camp that provides rising 5th - 12th grade students with the opportunity to learn cyber and STEM skills through hands-on activities and interactions with experts in those fields. After experiencing something far different from the usual summer camp, this growth mindset will give your child a better understanding of both cyber and STEM concepts and more importantly, confidence in their ability to design and create.
