Join us for the Summer of Science! Newly offered as a full-day, week long camp, Earth Adventures allows time for hiking, swimming, crafts, games, canoeing, and much more from June 6 through August 15.

Monday through Wednesday, we will explore Rock Springs Conservation Area. On Thursdays, we will go swimming. On Fridays, we will take a field trip. We’ll even plan for Wednesday Buddy Days, when parents can join their kids for a day of camp! Campers are asked to bring a sack lunch, although morning and afternoon snacks will be provided.
