School Day Off Camps
Kids don’t have school on certain national and religious holidays, so what better way for them to spend a day off than enjoying time at camp in a natural setting, unplugged from electronics?
On various school holidays this year, Awbury Arboretum will be hosting a day of camp from 8:30am-3:30pm, with a full day’s activities: games, hiking, lunch over a campfire (hot dog lunch provided, or you can send your own), s’mores, scavenger hunts, crafts, and time spent exploring nature. Camp will take place rain or shine, so come dressed for the weather. No phones or electronics, please.
School Day-Off Camps will be staffed by experienced counselors and teens from Awbury Adventures Summer Camp.
