Summer Camp 2026

Dyer Observatory now collaborates with Vanderbilt’s Programs for Talented Youth (PTY) to offer summer camp programming.

In lieu of our traditional camps of years past, Dyer now joins PTY’s renowned Summer Academy at Vanderbilt for the Young with an astronomy and space science camp designed for academically advanced rising 5th and 6th graders.

This program is part of Dyer Observatory’s ongoing efforts to expand summer programming for kids, and we look forward to building on this exciting initiative in the future.
