Registration Opening Dates

Resident Oct 26

Non-Resident Oct 28

Dive into adventure with a mini Ocean Explorers Camp this winter break! On the Monday and Tuesday after Christmas and the Monday and Tuesday after New Years (right before school starts back up), come explore the magic of the sea! Campers will journey under the sea to learn about incredible marine animals like sea turtles, whales, sharks, and more. Through hands-on activities, creative crafts, and exciting science experiments, kids will explore ocean ecosystems, learn how to rescue and rehabilitate marine animals, and even perform mock “sea animal check-ups.”

Each camper will also adopt their very own plush sea turtle to take home, complete with an adoption certificate. Perfect for future veterinarians, ocean rescuers, and ocean lovers!

Introduction to Marine Biology
Layers of the Ocean
