Pet Explorer Day Camps are a great opportunity for kids 6 to 12 years old to learn all about the shelter! During the summer we have one week camp options available and during the spring, our Spring Break camps brings one-day camp options for your kiddos.
A typical day at camp includes learning about the shelter, exploring animal-related careers, making treats for the animals in our care, playing games, crafts and of course - ANIMALS!
All camps run from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
Campers need to bring a packed lunch that does not need microwaved, a snack, and dress comfortable with closed toed shoes.
