Winter Eco Camp 2021 - Nature's Treasure

Do something wild this Winter Break! Join us for an immersive nature camp that gets kids outside and learning about the environment in a fun, safe way. Led by a Florida Master Naturalist and experienced Environmental Educators, your kids will experience a true wild education.

Campers will:

• Go exploring for animals in the forest
• Search for creatures along the beach
• Learn how to create and cook with a fire
• Learn basic survival skills
• Create crafts and a nature journal of the vibrant Florida landscape
• Learn about the culture of the early Floridians
• Make friends, sing songs, and have fun!

Drop-off: Drop off will be at 9am at Kathryn Abbey Hanna Park. After registration you will be given the Pavillion number. Please provide this at the gate to enter the park. If you will be staying to explore the park, you will be required to pay the day fee, which is $6 per vehicle. Follow the directions given to the pavillion to sign in your child.

Please send your camper with a backpack that includes the following:

• Bagged lunch (snacks will be provided)

Pick-up: Pickup begins at 3:00 pm. You MUST pickup your child before 3:30 pm. When you arrive for pickup, please provide the front staff with the pavillion number so you do not have to pay to enter the park.
