Summer 2020 Earth Focus Day Camp is canceled due to COVID-19.
Earth Focus Day Camp helps campers develop an understanding of how ecosystems work, nurtures a sense of wonder for nature, and guides children as they explore the habitats, plants, and animals of the Arboretum. Campers are empowered to be a positive influence on their world.
Camp activities include outdoor discovery hikes and observations, hands-on science exploration, stories, games, and nature free play. Returning campers will find new and exciting experiences every year. Campers are encouraged to ask questions, play, and share, create, discover, construct, and cooperate.
