We had an INCREDIBLE visit from Rescue 18 Ladder and Engine 22 Paramedics from the OKC Fire Department on our Day 1 camp adventure 🚒🔥✨

They officially kicked off our STEAM Camp journey in the BEST way and we are beyond grateful for the energy, excitement, and inspiration they brought to start our adventure 🚀💡

From learning lifesaving skills to seeing the gear and trucks in person, our students were fully engaged, asking questions, and soaking in every moment 💡🚒

It’s partnerships like this that bring STEAM to life in the best way real world learning, unforgettable experiences, and inspiration that lasts far beyond the classroom ✨

We are beyond grateful to the Oklahoma Fire Department for pouring into our campers and helping us build the next generation of thinkers, leaders, and problem solvers 💛🔥

STEAM Camp kicked off with FIRE.. literally 🔥🚒
We had a special visit from Rescue 18 Ladder and Engine 22 Paramedics from the OKC Fire Department who taught our campers all about fire safety, teamwork, and what it takes to be first responders all through hands-on STEAM learning in action.

And yes… we ended with a showdown 👀
Veteran vs. newbie in a firefighter gear challenge and the competition was REAL 🚒💨

It’s been full STEAM ahead all camp long science, technology, engineering, art, and math coming to life through learning, laughter, and unforgettable moments ✨
We are so grateful for our local heroes who made this experience one our campers will never forget!

Round 2 of Summer Camp Highlights ☀️🚀🧪✨

This week has been filled with creativity, laughter, learning, and LOTS of smiles! From launching H2O rockets high into the sky and watching engineering skills come to life, to creating colorful elephant toothpaste experiments where each student got to make their own unique creation, our campers have truly amazed us every day.

We also spent time designing, building, creating, exploring, and making memories that will last long after summer ends. Between hands-on activities, popsicles, and nonstop fun, this is exactly what summer camp is all about 💛

We can’t wait to finish out the week with even more excitement because the fun definitely isn’t over yet!

Round 1 of of summer camp highlights and we are already having an AMAZING summer ☀️❤️🚀

These first two days have been full of creativity, teamwork, and lots of fun! Our campers have built and coded robots with Lego Spike, flown drones, created phone stands, solved challenges, and brought some incredible ideas to life.

From dancing robots to moving frogs and even snow cones 🍧 + popcorn 🍿, it’s safe to say the campers are having a blast!

We’re so thankful for such an amazing group of kiddos and cannot wait to share even more highlights soon 👀 because this is only the beginning!!!! ✨

✨ Before we kick off another summer camp season this week, we wanted to take a moment to reflect on the impact made throughout this school year. ✨

This year, our STEAM program had the privilege of serving 1,329 fifth grade students through hands on experiences designed to inspire curiosity, encourage creativity, and build confidence.

But these numbers represent more than students.

They represent future engineers, scientists, artists, problem solvers, innovators, leaders, and dreamers.

They represent moments of discovery, challenges overcome, new passions explored, friendships formed, and opportunities created.

And while 1,329 is an incredible number, it only reflects a portion of the impact, not including our additional outreach, enrichment programs, and community partnerships for the 2025-2026 school year.

As we prepare to welcome another group of students through our doors this week, we want to simply say:

Thank you to every student, family, educator, partner, and supporter who allowed us to leave a small thumbprint on their journey.

Here’s to another summer of learning, creating, exploring, and inspiring. ☀️✨Air & Space Forces Association of Oklahoma Oklahoma National GuardAir & Space Forces Association - Gerrity Chapter

Last Tuesday, we had an egg-tastic time with Ms. Bena’s 5th grade class from St. Philip Neri Catholic School for their Day 5 visit! 🥚✨

Students completed their final CAD project, explored the exciting world of nanotechnology, and worked together to determine the best materials and solutions for our underwater mission. To wrap up the day, they put their problem-solving and teamwork skills to the test while completing the challenge to save Captain EggBert! 🐣🔬🧫

This was such a fun, respectful, and highly engaged group of students. We are so thankful to have had the opportunity to work with Ms. Benas for the second year in a row with another amazing 5th grade class. Neri continues to bring students who are enthusiastic, curious, and ready to make STEAM come alive!

What made this visit even more special is that this was our LAST academy of the school year! 💙 What an incredible way to end the year with creativity, collaboration, and students excited about learning. Also. BIG THANK YOU to our parent volunteers that came all five days with them .

St. John Nepomuk Catholic School 5th graders from Mrs. Sprague’s class wrapped up their Day 5 experience with us at STARBASE on Thursday, and what an amazing way to finish their time together! 🎓🧪💻✨

This fun, action-packed day was filled with graduation celebrations, exciting chemistry experiments like Elephant Toothpaste, and hands-on learning with Happy Atoms as students explored molecules and the periodic table of elements. Students also completed their final computer-aided design (CAD) project where they learned how to create a gyrosphere design!

Their curiosity, creativity, teamwork, and excitement made this group such a joy to work with throughout their time at STARBASE. We are so proud of all they accomplished and know they have bright futures ahead of them! 🌟
