SparkSquad Manufacturing Camp July 13-16

What if you could design a process, build a product, sell a product — and make a profit — all in one week?

In this four-day, hands-on Manufacturing Camp, students will step into the role of entrepreneur and manufacturer. Campers will work in teams to brainstorm product ideas, design prototypes, plan their manufacturing process, and calculate production costs. They’ll learn how pricing, efficiency, marketing, and quality all impact profitability.

From concept to customer, participants will:

• Design and plan the manufacturing process

• Produce their product using hands-on equipment and tools

• Create a sales and marketing strategy

• Sell their finished goods

At the end of camp, students will experience a true return on investment — earning back a portion of the proceeds from the products they manufacture and sell. It’s a real-world lesson in innovation, teamwork, budgeting, and business fundamentals.

This camp is perfect for students who are creative, competitive, curious about business, or interested in how products are made and brought to market.

Learn it. Build it. Sell it. Profit from it.

Campers will need to have attended a previous welding camp to participate.
