Registration now open for ComputerCorps Tech Camp in Carson City
Warmer weather is upon us – finally – which also means so is the ever popular and very educational ComputerCorps TechCamp Summer Series! Yes, summer is just a few months off and ComputerCorps TechCamp 2K24 is now accepting applicants.
For the last 24 years, Students Ages 9-15 have fun, and learn about computer recycling, testing, assembly and operation. At the end of the TechCamp, they take home their very own computer system.
There are 3 separate TechCamps, each lasting for 2 weeks, and are held at 4630 US Highway 50 East, in Carson City, NV. They tend to fill up quickly, so time is of the essence!

TechCamp 2K23 Alpha: Jun 17th – Jun 28th
TechCamp 2K23 Bravo: Jul 8th -- Jul 19th
TechCamp 2K23 Charlie: July 29th – Aug 9th
Days & Hours: Monday – Friday 1:30pm to 4:30pm. Space is limited to 16 students ages 9-15 in each camp.

“It is a “win-win" situation, by participating in the ComputerCorps ‘Every Home ‘A’ Classroom’ Summer TechCamp you help your community, learn about computers, and get to take home your very own basic computer system,” said Community Relations Director Ken Hamilton.
This system includes a Monitor, Keyboard, Mouse, Speakers, DVD/RW, Wireless and Wired Internet Ready, Microsoft Windows 10 Pro & Microsoft Office Suite. Each student enjoys Learning, Meeting New Friends, Games, Awards, Snacks & Fun!
On Friday evening, the last day of the camp, computers and awards are given out at the graduation dinner.
Sponsorships for students are available, ranging from $50 to $400. By providing a sponsorship for a child in the ComputerCorps “Every Home ‘A’ Classroom” Summer TechCamp Program, you can help your community by helping kids learn about computers, technology, and recycling.
