NEW!✨ BUILD, CODE, CREATE

Future Stars Minecraft Modding Camp invites campers to experience Minecraft in a whole new way. This hands-on program introduces Java programming fundamentals and puts those skills to work through Minecraft modding. Starting with the basics, campers progress throughout the week to create more structured and interactive programs.

As they learn to write reusable, modular code, campers manipulate the game world, design custom items and interactive objects, and develop AI behaviors for original creatures. Through guided challenges and creative problem-solving, campers strengthen coding skills while bringing their ideas to life inside Minecraft.

Character Education at Future Stars

S.T.A.R.S. stands for Safety, Teamwork, Attitude, Responsibility, and Sportsmanship. These interconnected values define what it means to be part of the Future Stars family and show campers how one positive choice can strengthen the whole community. By understanding and practicing these values, campers learn the impact they can have on their team, their peers, and the world they live in.

Each day, our professional coaches and educators highlight one value through fun, hands-on activities. Campers discuss why it matters and put it into practice in games, challenges, and outdoor adventures. Whether on the baseball field, in a chess match, or on a paddle board, we help every camper develop the skills and confidence to shine as a Future Star in any community.
