“The Carus Summer Science Camp has become a meaningful tradition in our community, helping kids explore science in a way that’s exciting, accessible, and fun,” said Lyndsay Bliss, Vice President of Human Resources and Communications at Carus. “We hope this camp will pique their interest in the fields of STEM at an early age and encourage them to keep an open mind as they decide their future learning paths.”
