Kernsville Elementary School, Orefield, was the site of this year’s Camp Invention, a summer program based on STEM - Science, Technology, Engineering and Math.

The program is designed to boost the confidence of children from kindergarten through sixth grade by creating hands-on inventions that teach about science and build new friendships.

Forty-seven children attended this year’s one-week program.
