This summer the EUReka! Science Program is coming to Williams Lake from August 6 to 9, says city recreation programmer Suzanne Cochrane.

The program is for kids ages nine to 14.

EUReKA! is a non-profit, student-run organization based out of Thompson Rivers University Kamloops that strives to increase elementary students’ interest in and excitement towards science and engineering and to help teachers bring science into the regular classroom.

EUReKA! camps emphasize fun, challenging, hands-on, problem solving activities where kids will be to do Crazy Chemistry, unBelievable Biology, Exciting Engineering and Funky Physics.

“I was very excited that they could bring their travel camp to Williams Lake,” Cochrane says.

“For their travel camp they take all their best projects they do at TRU in Kamloops to various communities throughout the Interior of BC.

“We are very fortunate to host them and need families to register by July 26 so we meet the minimum number of campers required.”

The cost is $169 for four days of science fun from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

To register call the Cariboo Memorial Recreation Complex at 250-398-7665.
