Camp Date and Time

All camps run the week of July 28 - August 1st

Where?

This camp will be located near downtown Palo Alto, CA. (Exact address will be given after registration)

Why?

Learning to solve a Rubik's Cube helps kids develop their brain. Also, the speedcubing community is welcoming to all, and you will make friends as you become a speedcuber.

Building the cube-solving robot is a fun and engaging way for kids to get an introduction to both coding and basic hardware design.

Counselors

This camp will be run by two rising 9th graders, Amahl and Larry.

Both counselors are members of Cuberobot, a small FIRST Tech Challenge (FTC) team. They have performed well in many tournaments, including winning the 2025 NorCal-FTC Fremont High School Qualifying Tournament.  In addition, a few summers ago, Amahl and Larry designed their own robot that solves a cube.

Amahl and Larry are also competitive speed cubers who have been cubing for over three years. At comps organized by the World Cube Association, Larry has an official 3x3 personal record single of 7.41 seconds, and Amahl has an official personal record single of 6.62 seconds, as well as an average of 7.73 seconds.
