The University of Arizona Alumni Association hosted its 21st annual Beginning Teen Astronomy Camp from June 3-10 at the Catalina Observatories on Mt. Lemmon. In attendance were 24 students (ages 11-16) from 14 states and four Arizona cities. The eleven adult staff members included current undergraduate students, graduate students in astronomy and in music, and PhD astronomers from various colleges and universities around the US. Six staff were former Campers. Over $5,000 was awarded to seven students, one of whom was supported by the NIRCam Science Team’s education and public outreach program to the Girl Scouts of the USA. During the Camp all students learned about JWST and NIRCam through model building, hands-on optics, CCD imaging, and talks by NIRCam scientists and by Ms. Janet Howard, a NASA Solar System Ambassador and former Adult Astronomy Camper and now staff member.
