Week 1 of Art+Energy Camp was epic! Field trips, making, energy games, climate science, green buildings, and more. We got a taste of "existing conditions" of energy generation through some fantastic field trips!
Field trips included:
- Beaver Valley Nuclear Plant
- Bruce Mansfield Coal Fired Power Plant
- Conservation Consultants, Inc. building
- Energy Innovation Center
- Chatham's Eden Hall Campus
Next week campers will start sketching their ideas for a renewable energy artwork!
“At first my parents forced me to come to camp. The field trips, teachers, and experiences changed my point of view of this camp, and now I love it.”
