Think of your favorite color…where does it come from? Is it really that color, or are our eyes playing tricks on us? What we see around us all has to do with the nature of light and how it interacts with our eyes. Other animals have different kinds of eyes (think insects). Their eyes are so different from ours that they interpret light differently…even seeing in different wavelengths.

Camp runs January 16th. Drop-off for camps are from 8:00-8:20 (drop off) to 3:30-4:00 (pick-up).
