In the colossal land of California, where palm trees dance in the ocean breeze and the sun smiles brighter than a spotlight, a unique group of cool kids who go by the Code Commandos are making waves. They are not your everyday beach-loving, surfboard-riding, taco-munching Californians, although they do share a fondness for a good fish taco! Meet the Code Commandos, a group of kids each one more creative and curious than the last. They thrive in the world of ones and zeros, finding ways to make computers do things that will blow your socks off! When they are not exploring the scenic trails of Yosemite or catching a Lakers game, they are immersed in the thrilling world of coding and programming. There's Max, the leader, who can spin a web of code faster than a spider on a sugar rush. Lucy, the queen of debugging, can spot an error in a line of code from a mile away without her glasses! And then there's Sam, the youngest of the pack, who has more ideas buzzing in his head than there are seals on the sandy beaches of La Jolla. Each day, these kids sit before their silver screens, fingers flying over keyboards like pianists playing a symphony, creating magic that will shape the future. They laugh at the thought of pesky bugs in their code, squashing them with a chortle and a swift click. So, if you hear the echo of fast typing and the sight of the glowing screens in the Golden State, you might have just stumbled upon our fantastic Code Commandos, making the world a better place one line of code at a time!

At Galileo Innovation Camp, we understand the importance of nurturing our campers’ innovative potential. That’s why we’ve developed the Galileo Innovation Approach, or “GIA”, an exclusive three-part framework. We believe that all innovators need the right mindset, knowledge, and process to bring their best ideas to life. At camp, the GIA helps our campers develop a mindset that promotes innovative thinking, giving them the tools to ask the right questions and come up with creative solutions. We also provide our campers with the substantive knowledge they need to guide their breakthrough ideas and bring them to fruition. Finally, the GIA serves as a process that provides our campers with the support they need to make their innovations a reality. At Galileo Innovation Camp, we use the GIA as a lens to help our campers reach their full potential. Through this approach, we’re able to ensure that our campers have the support they need to unlock their innovative potential and bring their best ideas to life.
