All About Animals Summer Camp
$275 for Members
Everyone loves animals, right? Join us for the All About Animals camp at Hawk Mountain to take a deep dive into every group of animals, big and small. We will hike through the forest, play games, make crafts, meet live animals, and even travel to an offsite location to explore!
Our Summer Nature Camps, designed for youth entering grades 1st – 5th, get kids outdoors, developing a deeper connection with the natural world through fun and educational activities. We provide a professional environmental education specialist for each camp and limit group size based on optimal teacher-student ratios. Meeting live animals, hiking woodland trails, role-playing, making art and craft projects, learning from scientists and special presenters, exploring natural areas, telling and listening to stories, and conducting experiments fill the campers’ days. Off-site trips may be included to study water creatures or explore regional highlights.
Campers must be able to hike up to 2 miles over uneven and rocky terrain.
ALL FEES AND RELEASE FORMS ARE DUE NO LATER THAN 2 WEEKS (14 DAYS) BEFORE THE FIRST DAY OF CAMP YOU REGISTERED FOR.
Once registered, parents/guardians must complete release forms digitally via Docusign. The release forms are linked here. Campers registered for multiple weeks only need to submit release forms once. Please note that these forms must be submitted no later than 2 weeks prior to the start date of your children's selected camp program(s).
