Registration is open for the 2026 Dale Lauren Foland Manufacturing Camp at Buckeye Career Center.
The three-day camp runs July 14th through the 16th and is open to incoming seventh and eighth graders. This will be the camp’s ninth year.
Buckeye’s Frank Polen says local sponsor companies send mentors to teach four manufacturing competencies each day, and students also head out on two company tours each afternoon.
He says the goal is to give kids hands-on experience and a real-world look at careers in modern manufacturing.
The cost is $50 per student, covering meals, transportation, camp materials, and a T-shirt. Financial assistance is available.
The registration deadline is June 26th, and parents can sign up at BuckeyeCareerCenter.org.
