Help Make My Summer Camp Awesome

Hey all- for those who don’t know, I’ll be running my very own LEGO Robotics summer camp this summer, the week of July 19-23. With 14 kids currently enrolled, and new enrolments still coming in, I’m getting very excited about it, and doing my best to prepare for this new endeavor!

That said, over the next week or so, I’ll be putting together all the materials for the camp, some of which I already own, and some of which I don’t. Below is a list of items I currently don’t have, but will need in order to run the camp at its maximum potential I’d truly appreciate it if you took a moment to read through the list and see if you might be able to donate, loan, or rent me any of the items.

Things I Need: (If you have any questions re: why I need a specific item, feel free to ask in a comment on the blog, or via Twitter/FB/Email)

  • Old computers or laptops (anything that can run Windows XP relatively smoothly is perfect!)
  • Computer accessories (extra monitors, cables, keyboards, mice etc)
  • Surge protectors
  • Packing peanuts
  • Plastic bins of all sizes (smaller bins for holding LEGO pieces, larger bins for organizing LEGO bins)
  • Plastic parts trays (anything similar to the picture below)
  • Tape. Any tape is welcome. Specifically, white and black masking tape would be excellent!
  • Your old LEGO Technic pieces
  • A digital projector
  • Butcher paper
  • Clipboard/s
  • Folders/Portfolios
  • Your ideas or suggestions

Any of the above listed items would be greatly appreciated- not only by me, but by the 14 or more kids in the camp, as well as their families and friends!

That said, if you’d like to contribute, please contact me via your preferred mode of the following list:

      What are the advantages of Posterous over WP? I like WP because it’s highly configurable, and has been around for a while with a proven track record. That said, I’m always open to trying something new :)
