Cyber Ninja Day Camp for area middle/high school girls.

Forty-five area middle and high school girls had an opportunity to become Cyber Ninjas at a unique day camp being held at the 91�ؿ� 91�ؿ� Valley Mall site in Christiansburg in 2016, 2017, and 2018. The camps have been on pause since COVID 19 but we hope to restart our activities soon!

The camp, which was free of charge, ran from July 11 through 15 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. The week culminated with a one-hour session open to family and friends to view the projects completed during the camp.

Three areas of the cyber world were covered during the week-long day camp: “cyber safety games” where students created their own game encouraging good security practices; “securing the internet of things” where students 3D printed a drone and flew it on cyber missions; and “cyber security detective agency” where security software was used to solve mysteries.

Campers received lunch every day and a t-shirt, USB, and a Raspberry Pi at the end of the week. Funding for the camp was made possible through a National Security Agency grant.
