Ijams Nature Center: Outdoor Adventure Camps
Dates: June 5 – August 4
Time: Monday-Friday, 10 AM – 4 PM (morning camp & after care available). Lunch and snack included.
- June 5-9 and July 10-14: Nature’s Heroes and Villains Week. There are many wonderful things we love about nature, but there are also things we fear or dislike about nature. The oft-dreaded poison ivy creeps up tree trunks and lines the trails, but is it a villain in nature?
- June 12-16 and July 17-21: Exploring Ijams Wilderness Week. Do you have what it takes to survive a week at Ijams? Adventure awaits as you make your way across the wilderness in search of shelter, water, and food. New and exciting discoveries are around every turn.
- June 19-23 and July 24-28: Time Traveling Explorers. Ijams holds many secrets about its past; join us as we travel through time to meet some of the pioneers of the land, study geologic formations, and uncover artifacts that were long forgotten.
- June 26-30 and July 31 – August 4: Aquatic Adventures. Discover the amazing and sometimes elusive world of aquatic life at Ijams. This week is dedicated to getting up close to the plants and animals that call the ponds, creek, and river home.
