Summer Camp at the Children's Garden 2024
Nature fun awaits you at our Summer Camp! There is a new adventure everyday and the wonders of Mother Nature to explore! Our camps are designed for kids ages 5 to 10 years old. We encourage your child's imagination, we foster creativity and we allow for Make-Believe!

Important Information

Arts & Crafts, education, storytelling, dress-up & creative play are all incorporated in our camp days and the best part is that we are out in nature getting our hands dirty . Play clothes and tennis shoes are highly advised as we play a lot. Pack a healthy lunch with extra water as we get thirsty. Please apply sunscreen and bug spray before camp. Best to wear long loose fitting pants! Each camp day runs from 10am to 2pm with drop offs no earlier than 9:45am and afternoon pickups no later than 2:15pm.

Cost for camp runs $160.00+tax for non-members and $145.00+tax for garden members. Refunds are available until two weeks prior to the first day of camp. Purchase online using the PayPal links, over the phone, or in person at the Garden. Each camp must have a minimum of six children enrolled, otherwise a refund will be issued.
All campers must have a completed waiver in order to finalize registration.
