Nature Trekkers Spring Break Camp for Explorers ages 5 to 12.

Please note: REGISTRATION FOR SPRING BREAK CAMP HAS CLOSED.
Be sure to check our Summer Camp schedule

We're getting Wet & Wild in our 2008 Spring Break Camp!

Join us as we "dive" into the watery worlds of the Arboretum to seek out, capture, and examine the critters that live below the surface. We'll scoop up some of these sub-marine creatures and find out how they breathe, move and eat. Investigating some tiny, yet, ferocious dragons, insect piranhas, and water tigers living in our aquatic habitats will round out the week.

Our naturalist teachers will be leading children in fun, hands-on activities as they explore the ponds and wetlands of the Arboretum. Children are taught in classes by age (5 & 6 yrs., 7 & 8 yrs., and 9-12 yrs.)
