Kids might be out of school for summer, but their brains are hard at work. 

Camp Invention kicked off at the Florida Strawberry Festival fairgrounds Monday, June 20. Campers brought in recycled materials to create their own inventions while learning about science and related fields. 

The camp is up to 84 kids, compared to last year’s 57 kids.
