Ready...set...Summer ZooCamp!

June 10 - August 30, 2013

We had record attendance at ZooCamp in 2012 and we are looking forward to more fun in 2013! Every day in ZooCamp, we will explore the week's theme by visiting animals, making crafts, playing games and much more. A highlight of the day is meeting animal ambassadors right in the classroom! In addition to those activities, campers will often take a trek out into Seneca Park to play games, go for hikes, and play on our playground. We also always make time to catch the live animal Stage Show, Enrichment Demos and feedings. Your child might even help the Zoo Keepers with some of their daily tasks! ZooCamps are for kids ages 3 to 12.

What do people have to say about ZooCamp?

"For Christmas, Evan asked if he could go to ZooCamp again this Summer...He may be getting older and outgrowing different toys and shows but you never outgrow ZooCamp!" - Marcia Roesser

"The kids blew us away, every day they were so excited to talk about everything they had done...They learned so much and had so many stories to share...We were surprised with how much you fit in and the variety, you certainly kept the kids busy." - Tina Ebmeyer
