Spring Break Camp: Tails of the Forest *FULL*
Spring is in the air! The birds are calling, the flowers are blooming, and the amphibians and insects are crawling! Join us over Spring Break for two-day adventures of animal ecology exploration, springtime art, and learn about what it takes to become a Junior Wildlife Vet!
Tails of the Forest Why do animals have tails? How do their tails help them survive? Join us as we learn about all the tails of the forest and the animals that they belong to. Play animal games and make art inspired by what you learn. We will be sure to spend lots of time searching for bushy squirrel tails, colorful newt tails and spiky woodpecker tails.
