Allerton Summer Day Camp

Acorns: Wildlife Expedition 6/3-6/7

$220

with Acorns Instructor Team

Calendar Jun 3, 2024 at 8 am, runs for 1 week

Week 1: June 3-7

Ages: 5-7

Allerton is home to so many animals! Have you seen turkey vultures circling overhead? Or heard the frogs croaking by the Reflecting Pond? Our goal this week is to find as many native animals as we can (or at least find signs of them). We’ll make animal track molds to take home, then go out in search of the animals that would make them outside.

Lunch, two snacks, a T-shirt and all necessary materials are included.  Campers will need to bring their own water bottle, sunscreen, bug spray, and a change of clothes/shoes.

Payment plan available: $50 deposit plus 2 payments of $85.00, paid every two weeks.
