Cadet Wild Rides (9 to 10 years old) [July 20 - 24]
What about the rides? Every camp season our animal enthusiasts want to know more about our "Frog Hopper", "Dragon Fliers" & "Danny the Dragon Train"-like experiences. This highly-requested camp will teach campers how the rides move like the zoo animals do & how we make it happen. We will combine a study of the animals & explore the rides through behind-the-scenes tours, games, crafts, activities, animal encounters & wind-in-our-hair experiences.
Happy Hollow offers full-day camps for young animal enthusiasts throughout the summer for ages 5 to 13 years old. Camps are filled with interactive, educational activities, animal encounters, zoo tours & nature play opportunities.
