Spend your mornings at HatchSpace building and decorating a custom skateboard\, then head to the Boys &\; Girls Club for lunch and an afternoon of skating in their indoor skatepark and around town.\r \n This youth empowerment camp combines a STEM-based curriculum focused on fundamental construction skills with the recreational activity of skateboarding. Whether you’ve never stepped on a skateboard before or you're a novice looking to improve your skills\, this camp is for you!\r \n Itinerary:\r \n Students begin and end each day at the Boys &\; Girls Club. Students travel from the BGCB with a staff member to HatchSpace in the morning\, then back to the Club for lunch and an afternoon of skating.\r \n At HatchSpace (Mornings): At HatchSpace\, students will learn to sort and glue up wood veneers\, then use a vacuum forming technique to bend their boards.
