Backyard Explorers June 23-27, 2025

This camp is intended for children going into grades 1st-3rd. This camp runs Monday - Friday, 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM.

Explore the earth around us by learning about sustainability, pollination, and ecosystem interactions! Campers will learn about conservation and how to repurpose old things into new ones as they develop outdoor skills and an appreciation for nature. Launch into the unknown as we explore everything from our own backyards to the far reaches of space. 

To Complete Registration

Registration must be completed at least 2 weeks before the start of a camp. The payment and “Liability and Release Form” must be submitted by then for your camper’s registration to be considered complete. You will receive a link to the “Liability and Release Form” after the payment is authorized.

Extended Care

You may request to drop off your child early for $20/day or pick up your child late for $20/day ($40/day for both). Early Care Drop-off is between 8:30-9:00 AM. Late Care Pick-up is between 4:00-4:30 PM. Please sign up for this now or in person at least 24 hours in advance. 

We will not open the doors to any early drop-offs without advance notice and Early Care payment. If you are late for pick-up, you will be charged the base Late Care fee PLUS $20 every 10 minutes after 4:00 PM (or 4:30 PM with prepaid Late Care) until pick-up occurs.

Cancellation and Refunds

If you need to cancel your registration for a camp, you may receive a full refund if done 30 days in advance, a 50% refund between 30 days and 2 weeks in advance, and no refund after the 2-week advance. You may transfer the registration to another child or week up until 2 weeks in advance. Refunds cannot be issued if you take your camper out of camp in the event of another camper’s illness. Please contact the Education Department for questions and extenuating circumstances.
