Description: Ready to ride somet
hing you built yourself? In this action-packed cam
p\, students will design and create their own cust
om light-up skateboard deck—combining woodworking\
, laser cutting\, and electronics into one epic bu
ild.
\n
\n Start by shaping and sanding
your board in the woodshop\, then add custom flai
r using a laser cutter to engrave graphics or cut
design elements. Next\, bring the glow! You’ll wir
e up NeoPixel LEDs and program a microcontroller t
o create eye-catching light patterns that respond
and shine.
\n
\n Along the way\, you’ll
learn safe tool use\, creative design techniques\
, and foundational coding skills—earning badges fo
r each tool and skill mastered. Throughout the wee
k we will walk to the Coeur d'Alene skate park and
test your designs! By the end of camp\, you won’t
just roll out with a one-of-a-kind illuminated sk
ateboard—you’ll leave with serious maker confidenc
e and tech know-how.
\n
\n Build it bol
d. Ride it bright. Let’s light up the skate park!<
