Designed for children ages 4 to 12 to have a fun hands-on learning experience that encourages them to develop a greater understanding and appreciation for God's amazing creation.

Look what’s new in 2009!

·         You asked for it and we made it happen. This summer we will be offering the Jr. Naturalist camp for 9 to 12 year olds. Each day, camp participants will learn about a different field of science such as entomology, botany, mammalology etc.  Campers will conduct small experiments, participate in preserve research, and meet scientists who work in the different fields.  Space is limited so register early.

·         Family night was a success last year so once again campers and their families are invited to attend a special evening program on Thursday nights for Session 1 though 4. Family night is designed to help the whole family develop a connection to the natural world through fun, hands-on activities related to the theme of the week. 

·         In order to avoid tiring out our young campers, the 4 &5 year old camps will run from Monday to Thursday and will end with Family night on Thursday evening.

For those families that would like to send their children to camp but are experiencing financial hardships, you made pay the camp fee in installments via checks. Please mail a check for 1/2 of the registration fee within 7 days of registering to reserve your space. The rest of the fee is due by June 1, 2009. Both checks need to be made out to Calvin College.
