Animal Humane Society's day camps offer fun, educational experiences for kids who love animals. Animal interactions, a tour of the shelter, games and crafts are the essentials, but each camp is designed with different topics in mind. They may include visits from special guests, animal service projects, and so much more.
Camps run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. unless otherwise noted.
Summer Camp is a five-day, animal-themed camp for kids entering grades 3-10.
Kids spend time immersed in everything animal at one of four AHS locations. Each camp includes animal-related educational activities, including games, crafts, guest speakers, animal interactions, and more! Summer Camp runs Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., unless otherwise noted.
