Camp LCTI 2024 canceled
Snow days have outnumbered the extra days built into our calendar this winter, so Lehigh Career & Technical Institute is extending the 2023-2024 school year. As a result, we’ve made the difficult decision to cancel Camp LCTI 2024. Fortunately, one of our education partners, Carbon Lehigh Intermediate Unit 21 is offering STEM-focused day camps for kids this summer: Young Stemologist Academy and Tech Titans: Summer Spy Camp.

Camp class assignments
During the registration process, campers choose four camp classes per session and two alternate classes. Campers are assigned to classes on a first-come, first-served basis, so early registrants are more likely to get their top choices. Some classes, like this year’s Wooden Wonders, are only available for one session.
Every effort is made to assign campers to their top choices, however, there are no guarantees. Camp LCTI reserves the right to close classes that reach maximum capacity or cancel classes due to low enrollment. Remember, registration is not complete until we receive payment.
Camper’s class schedules will arrive via email before camp begins. Hard copies of campers’ class schedules will be provided on the first day of camp.
