Exploring Nature Day Camp at Burchfield Park

Burchfield Park's Nature Day Camp provides a safe, guided and enjoyable experience in a natural setting. Our Day Camp Naturalists guide campers through a fun and educational curriculum. Camp sessions run Monday through Friday in the summer, and are developed to encourage young campers to become engaged with nature and to provide them with experiences they will share with family and friends.

Campers will explore Burchfield Park's 540 acres - from woods to wetlands and participate in hands-on activities that will help them learn more about the natural world surrounding them. Activities, crafts and games are planned to provide recreational enjoyment while challenging young minds to nurture and support nature.

Enrollment is open to children ages 5-12.  Children age five must have completed kindergarten.
