Scrubs Camp - Bethel Overnight Camp

Bethel University · $300/week

Overnight camp at Bethel University for students to explore various healthcare professions and medical skills.

▌ Editor's read The Scrubs Camp is an overnight STEM program for high school students, specifically designed for those interested in healthcare careers. The program has been running since 2008, indicating a sustained presence in youth education, as evidenced by the 'About Scrubs Camp' section. It is hosted at Bethel University, suggesting a partnership with an established educational institution. The camp is organized by HealthForce Minnesota, a non-profit organization, which is a positive indicator for mission-driven programming. While the website provides detailed information about the camp's activities and schedule, there is no explicit mention of staff-to-camper ratios or background check policies for staff, which are common safety considerations for overnight camps. The camp's social media presence on Instagram and Facebook (HealthForceMN) further confirms its active engagement and community outreach.

Who thrives here Ages 12–18

Scrubs Camp - Bethel Overnight Camp serves high-school campers, which means the program is competing against summer jobs, college visits, internships, and residential overnight options. The case for a day camp at this age is usually a CIT (counselor-in-training) track, deep specialization in stem, or a portfolio item parents and kids both value. Programs that don't articulate one of those three usually lose this age band by 9th grade.
