A Survivor-Style Experience at ESU Prep
Not Your Average Summer Camp
This isn't lectures and worksheets. It's a high-energy, rotation-based survival experience where kids compete, build, create, and think their way through 8 weeks of themed challenges. Structured enough to build real skills. Intense enough to be unforgettable.
Tech Lab: Break It & Build It
Tinker, destroy, and rebuild. Hands-on tech and engineering challenges where the only rule is: make it work.
The War Room
Think sharp or get left behind. Strategy, planning, and big ideas — because outsmarting the competition starts here.
Base Camp Builds
Raw materials. Real challenges. Build something that stands — or watch it fall. No limits, no shortcuts.
The Arena
Speak up. Stand out. Survive the crowd. Debates, battles, and performances where confidence is the weapon.
Three Terrains. One Summer.
Survive the Jungle
The wilderness is unforgiving. Students jump in fast — learning to collaborate, build under pressure, and compete in head-to-head survival challenges.
Survive the Mountain
The climb gets harder. Leaders emerge. Students push through complex problem-solving challenges that test strategy, communication, and resilience.
Survive the Sea
The final test. Teams bring everything into the ultimate survival showdown. One group will outlast them all.
8 Weeks. 8 Missions. Zero Boredom.
Lost in the Jungle
Find your tribe. The wilderness doesn't wait — and neither do we.

Engineer your way to the top. The hardest build yet starts now.
