THE WORLD NEEDS INNOVATORS
Here’s a quick overview of our wild-eyed vision—and FIVE other things that distinguish Galileo from other camps.
1. WE HAVE A TOTALLY AUDACIOUS MISSION
We think the world needs innovators. We also think kids who learn to explore and fail without fear—the essence of innovation—are happier, more creative and more confident when faced with life’s challenges. They don’t always get this incredible boost in other settings, but thousands of them have been getting it at Galileo since 2002.
2. WE HAVE PROGRAMS FOR KIDS FROM PRE-K THROUGH 8TH GRADE
Drawing heavily from the innovation process inspired by the Stanford d.school, we design and run a constantly-evolving series of programs for kids from pre-K through 10th grade.
3. WE HAVE OVER 70 LOCATIONS IN THE BAY AREA, SOCAL, SEATTLE, DENVER AND CHICAGO
The demand for our camps grows every summer, so there’s likely to be a location near you. That means you don’t have to choose between the demands of work and life and treating your kids to a thrilling and potentially life-altering experience.
4. OUR INSTRUCTORS AND COUNSELORS ARE THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS
A camp is only as good as the people who nurture and inspire your kids every day. Our screening process is meticulous. Only the sharpest and most talented instructors, counselors and interns make the cut. Many are professional teachers and educators. Many have also been with us for many years. Each camp location bears their unique stamp, and pulsates with their infectious energy.
5. OUR PATRON SAINT IS ONE OF HISTORY’S MOST PRODIGIOUS INNOVATORS
When Stanford grad Glen Tripp established our first camp in Palo Alto in 2002, he named it after 16th-century wildman Galileo Galilei. He wasn’t trying to create a generation of heretics. He wanted to instill in kids the same spirit of fearlessness and creative action embodied by Galileo. That gene was inherited by visionaries like Frida Kahlo, Miles Davis and Steve Jobs. Now we’re passing it on to the next generation of fearless innovators to create a bright new world.
