Spring Vacation Camp
$60 members/$70 non-members per day
10:00 am to 2:00 pm

Pre-school and elementary students can take a nature break! Bring lunch and spend some time learning about nature in the winter and the habits of local wildlife as the days grow warmer.

Monday March 25: Spring into Action
Celebrate the beginning of Spring! We'll look for animals waking up from hibernation, birds and insects migrating back to Rye, and signs that the forest is ready for a new season.

Tuesday March 26: Get to the Garden!
Help us prepare the garden for a new growing season! Pull up weeds, spread out soil, and create signs for the new greens. You'll even plant your very own seed to take home!

Wednesday March 27: Under one log...
Is a miniature world! Find out why fallen logs are incredible habitats for organisms that can chew up wood, roll up in a suit of armor, and stay hidden from hungry eyes in the forest.

Thursday March 28: Junior Zookeepers
Do you have what it takes to care for animals? Discover what makes lizards leap, doves coo and guinea pigs squeak happily!

Friday March 29: Ocean Commotion
Is the Blind Brook salty? How do sharks eat? Do you need a spine to swim? Answer all these questions and more with a day of splashy fun!
