Camp WILD- 2021

Fall Camp WILD is a daily camp, during the week of Thanksgiving break! Camp WILD is designed for children ages 5-10. Each day is a new opportunity for children to have fun and learn through informal, hands-on, inquiry-based activities including informative zoo tours, exciting animal encounters, collaborative teamwork, creative art, and educational games. Camp immerses children in nature while fostering friendships and a love for the natural world.

Please note that in an effort to help prevent the spread of COVID-19, and maintain a safe environment for the campers, staff, and animals, we have decreased the capacity for campers each day. 

Masks will be required for all staff and campers indoors and when social distancing is not possible.
