Started in 1990 with inspiration from National Inventors Hall of Fame Inductees. Camp Invention was created to help mold and shape the next generation of creative minds. That’s why Inductees from the National Inventors Hall of Fame keep coming back – and giving back – to the Camp Invention program. From writing curriculum and building challenges to helping children on-site, our renowned leaders are truly invested in transforming the young minds of today into the brilliant thinkers of tomorrow.
