they d o n ’t m iss out.
C am p a c tiv itie s , s p e c ific a lly
planned for the interests o f each age
group, co v er everything from learn ­

p ro je c ts, so n g s, sto rie s, sn ack s,
train rides, anim al visitors and in-
depth tours o f the zoo.
T urtle C am p is a new daylong
cam p especially fo r 4 -y ear-o ld s —
and a good w ay fo r young kids to
test the w aters if th e y ’ll be atten d ­

C am pers observe the m any patterns,
sizes, colors and shapes that an i­

and learn about the d ifferen ces, and
sim ilarities, betw een w ild and d o ­
m esticated anim als.
C ougar C am p lets fifth-grade stu­

p rojects.
A nim al Investigators introduces
sixth-grade students to anim al care,

T he z o o ’s p ro fessio n al cam p
