Heist! CSI Camp for Kids, Spring Break 2012
March 14 to 16; and March 21-23
A valuable painting has been stolen from the local art gallery and your help is needed to solve the case!
This three-day spring break CSI camp offers children from aged 8 to 13 the chance to try their hand at crime solving and forensic investigation. Your child can learn to be a Junior Forensic Investigator and get hands-on experience with real forensic science. They’ll learn how investigators examine, photograph and process crime scenes, analyze evidence, including fingerprints, shoe and tire impressions and study bullet evidence (ballistics).
Participants can attend single workshops or attend all six and follow the investigation until the case is closed!
