Capen Hill Science and Nature Camp 2025

Explorers range from 5-12 years of age and attend camp for a full day of activities from 9:00am to 3:00pm. Each camper will be assigned to a group of peers that will stick together for the whole week. They’ll rotate throughout the day between 4-6 counselors providing different classes. Campers will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a variety of activities, such as exploring pond life, bird watching, learning new camp songs, and visiting animals at the Visitor Center. They’ll engage in recreation, arts and crafts, science experiments, and take daily hikes. They’ll also discover the wonders of plant life, our native animal species, and so much more! Each week, 1-2 special outsourced programs will join the camp for a unique nature oriented experience. Past programs have included ‘the Turtle Rescue League’, ‘J&J Reptile Show’, ‘Wingmasters’, among others. An Explorer’s day will be a highlight, offering exploration and discovery as campers enjoy exciting activities throughout Capen Hill’s 86-acre sanctuary.
