Marianna Ricketson-Husain, founder of Camp Wired, said this camp is made for middle school students who love technology.
"Every kid these days, they are really interested in working on the computer. Maybe they play games all day long. You might as well have them come over and create their own games," she said.
The technology camp features week-long classes for kids ages 7-15. There are still spaces available on the camps website.
