ASU-Beebe Announces Dates for 2024 Vanguard Discovery Camp, Seeking Community Partners

Unleash the potential of young minds this summer with Arkansas State University-Beebe’s Vanguard Discovery Camp, a weeklong adventure filled with hands-on exploration of science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM) for students entering grades 4-6.

Vanguard Discovery Camp will be held Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. beginning June 3-7 on the Searcy campus, June 10-14 on the Heber Springs campus, and June 17-21 on the Beebe campus. Campers will dive into exciting hands-on learning modules led by passionate instructors. Past sessions have included art, theater, first aid training, robotics, coding, cooking, meteorology, veterinary technology and more.

This day-camp format engages campers in weeklong sessions filled with intrigue, exploration, creativity and challenge. Students will embark on positive experiences that set them on a trajectory toward a rewarding future career. The Vanguard Discovery Camp, though structured, provides a no-pressure learning environment. Students participate in relaxed, affirming surroundings where they build lasting relationships. The focus is to ignite a desire for lifelong learning.
