The Club Invention afterschool program offers the following modules:

Bolder Builders™
The town of Unlucky has a most accurate name. Destroyed by an earthquake, the town must now rebuild. Children help architect and engineer, Archie Tek, design and construct the buildings that will bring the town back to life. From building simple tents and elaborate town structures to imploding buildings, children race to change the town name from "Unlucky" to "Lucky."

Castles, Catapults, and Coats of Arms™
The Club Invention program travels back to the Middle Ages to recreate an environment that was familiar during those times. Applying the lifestyle and science concepts that were known to people of that time, children create jewelry and coats of arms, explore the concept of buoyancy as they build boats that float, construct tall towers and drawbridges, and fabricate catapults to storm castle walls!

E.Z. Science™
A world-famous science magazine needs the help of children to get the next month's issue of the magazine on the streets. Solve readers' questions, design and print a new magazine cover, and map a delivery route to guarantee the speedy arrival of magazines to customers.

Flight Sight™
Ever wonder what it's like to fly like a bird or see the world as an astronaut does? In Flight Sight, children investigate flight from different views of the Earth. Exploring perspective, creating three-dimensional maps, building a flight simulator for pilots, and designing a flight craft of the future are all part of the fun!

Passage to Planet ROG™
Explore Planet ROG… a planet far from Earth with friendly natives and an environment rich in minerals. In the harsh conditions of outer space, children first repair their spaceship using tools that they invent. Upon reaching Planet ROG, children design shelters, encounter the friendly planet natives, and mine and transport minerals found on the planet before returning home.

Phys. Ed: Physics in Motion™
Inventive games are the focus of this fast-paced program of competition and entertainment. What will children create to keep gravity in check as they run a race? How will they keep a cracker and shaving cream tower from falling over? Can a parachute made of garbage bags really foil the effect of gravity and land gently? All of these questions will be answered by children during these days of physics (and physical) fun!

SOS: Endangered Earth™
The Saving Our Species organization (SOS) has contacted the Club Invention program and asked participants to help protect and save animal homes across the United States. From roving black bears to Indiana Bats, children invent devices that will help save endangered species.

Trash Island: A Garbage Patch Journey™
Children hear of the extreme build-up of trash in the North Pacific Central Ocean Gyre between California and Hawaii. They must figure out if it truly is an island, what it is made up of, and what can be done to keep it from growing. As a crew, children will be faced with ocean research challenges along the way - designing trawls, testing water quality, and creating their own underwater investigation equipment.
