Audubon Naturalist at Broadlands
Summer Nature Camp
Kids Grow Better Outside!

Give your child the gift of the outdoors this summer.  Our nature camps take place at the Broadlands Nature Center and are the best way to get kids outside and learning.  Our camps feature eco-crafts, games and nature exploration.  The Nature Center and all of its animals and activities will be our home as we explore the natural world around us.

At-home online registration begins Tuesday February 16th at noon.

CAMPS FOR 4-5 YEAR OLDS
Cold-Blooded Critters: June 21st-25th  9am-noon
Scaly, slimy and surprising; cold blooded critters are fascinating creatures with some wild adaptations. Non-poisonous snakes eat poisonous snakes, some frogs can freeze solid in the winter and a turtle’s favorite food may surprise you! Join us as we meet the cold blooded critters that live in Broadlands then look outside for some of their wild relatives. 

Super Duper Science:  June 28th-July 2nd  1pm-4pm
Slime and bubbles to wheels and balls – we cover it all in this fun, hands-on science exploration. Hands-on science experiments will help us learn all about mixtures and movement in this camp perfect for budding scientists. We will then go outside to find similar science in the outdoors.

CAMPS FOR 6-7 YEAR OLDS
Wet N Wild: June 21st-25th  1pm-4pm
Water is essential to life on this planet! Learn more about life in ponds, rivers, and watersheds in this cool camp. And of course, we will be playing some extreme water games.

Creature Feature: June 28th-July 2nd  9am-noon
Meet a live animal every day in this exciting camp! We will investigate the differences between wild animals and pets, including their different adaptations. Before we meet our live guest, we will practice safe handling and how to respect our new acquaintances. We’ll finish every day seeing and touching the animal we have learned so much about!

Cost:  Broadlands Residents: $120  Non-Resident: $150
