While both camps offer similar activities and schedules, there are a few differences. For in-person Chip Camp, the large group of participants meet at a physical location in the community. Online Chip Camp is conducted virtually, and students participate remotely using online collaboration tools like Zoom. At in-person Chip Camp, all materials and meals are provided to the students. For online Chip Camp, students receive all activity materials via mail ahead of the camp, but no meals are provided.
