Winter School Vacation Camps
 

Winter School Vacation Camps

Our camps are designed to give the students an exciting outdoor alternative for their winter breaks.  A portion of each program will be spent outdoors building a deeper connection to the natural world through fun and informative activities.  We provide a highly trained environmental educator for each of our programs.   Join us and create memories that will last a lifetime.  Each camp runs from 9:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M. daily and students can choose to come for just one day or join us for an entire session. Camps are for children ages 6-12 years old.  

Cost: $50 per day.  Pre-registration is mandatory.
