All About Flight
Grab your pole, reel, and bait as we hike down to the ole fishin' hole. We will provide all the necessary fishing equipment. Campers will learn how to put the pole together, and thread the hook on the line. We will even make our own bobbers, play fishing games, and spend some time pan-fishing.
Every child needs a special place in the forest to hang out. We will head out to the woods at Central Park to find that place! Campers will collect leaves, adopt a tree, make a bird feeder, and observe life in the woods.
Just how do creatures fly and planes get off the ground? We will spend the week learning about the science of flight. Campers will make paper airplanes and construct a rocket to launch into the air. We’ll even look at how birds and insects fly.

Water Everywhere
Wacky Weather
Dive on in! Where does water come from and why is it so important? What lives in the water? Your camper will join us in water explorations all week, and also have fun playing with H2O to stay cool!
Do you know what causes the weather we experience? Why is it hot in the summer and cold in the winter? Campers will construct a mini weather station, record what happens outside each day, and try to make predictions about the weather!
