Advanced Build-A-Bot Camp


Youth Classes and Activities / STEM -
Summer 2026

If you want a real robotics challenge, this camp is for you! In this camp we will focus on building one of our favorite kit robots of all time, the OWI Arm Edge. The OWI Arm Edge is a fully articulated robotic arm with 5 degrees of motion. The best part is your young engineer will get to take it home! Batteries are included. This is a large complicated kit, so we will spend most of the week building the arm. It will take most of the week to complete. Once your Junior Engineer completes their robot arm, they will have the opportunity to build a robot with my LEGO robotics kits.
Your instructor, Mr. Kilbane, is a local scout leader and a veteran STEM teacher. He has been writing and running STEM camps for over 20 years and just completed his 12th season as a FIRST Robotics Competition mentor and coach.
This camp is for those kids who love to build and can easily work on a project for an hour or two. I do have a Junior Build-a-Bot camp for younger kids and my regular Build-a-Bot camp as well. If you have questions about what camp is right for your Junior Engineer, please drop me a line at colinkilbane@GopherSTEAM.com.
