Google and MAKE have teamed up once again to organize their third annual “Maker Camp” through Google+.

The online summer camp is entirely free and open to anyone, and provides interested participants with fun, summer DIY projects, such as soda bottle rocket fireworks, glowing bikes and LED shoe clips. There are also weekly virtual field trips to places like NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Google [x] and Lego Education.

Those without Internet connection can gather at one of 500 local “campsites” hosted by libraries and community centers around the world. To get started, just follow +Make on Google+. Hit the break for a promotional video of the camp.
