Note: I disabled (unassigned) the AstroCamp.us website in October 2023, so it is no longer active. PDF excerpts remain in the right column.
AstroCamp is a weeklong, stargazing adventure for kids at YMCA Camp Eberhart in Three Rivers, Michigan. Learn the constellations and get your hands on telescopes under dark skies in a fun summer camp environment.
I have been an AstroCamp Counselor since 2003, and the Director of AstroCamp for 2014-2017. I built and maintained an unofficial AstroCamp website at www.astrocamp.us through 2016.
Note: the original AstroCamp website was hosted by DePaul University at http://analyzer.depaul.edu/paperplate/astrocamp.htm.
