| Can I register more than 1 child at a time? |
Each child must be registered separately and paid for separately. |
| Why do you limit the size of the summer workshop? |
Every child is important to us and deserves our attention. We have limited space to accommodate the group. |
| My child will be in 7th grade this September, can I sign her/him up? |
Instead of this Metal Robotics Workshop, check out our Summer Lego Program which is a different challenge and more appropriate for the age group. |
| What if I can only attend one of the days? |
Day 2 in each session is built on the concepts of day 1. We prefer you to attend both days to gain the most. |
| How many kids are in each sub-group? |
Three to four kids in each sub-group will share the equipment and work together. |
| My child requires special attention, or I just want to come and help out, is this possible? |
Absolutely. Please let us know via email or the registration system. We request parents of special needs children to stay and help with the sub-group. |

| What are the benefits of using PayPal? |
PayPal is an industry leader for accepting online payments. It is a safe and easy way to authorize payments without exposing your financial information to the vendor. PayPal offers protection from unauthorized payments and your account is monitored 24/7 to prevent fraud. With PayPal facilitating the payment process, you will know right away if there are any issues with the credit card information you enter, as well as an almost immediate email confirmation of payment. PayPal also offers you more payment options. You can simply pay using your credit card, or you can set up a PayPal account. With a PayPal account, you will have the option to pay with either a bank account or credit card. |
