STEAM-powered Zoo in Training (11 to 13 years old) [June 8 - 12]
Science Technology Engineering Arts & Mathematics are at the core of this summer camp where we traverse potential S.T.E.A.M. career paths for our campers. We will be experimenting with different types of science from "Astronomy to Zoology" and tying in math & art in the best possible way. With the zoo animals, engineering design feats, various artistic media, outdoor field data collection, microscopes & other laboratory equipment, we are going to discover it all.
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. Every camp at Happy Hollow is uniquely themed to provide fun, hands-on learning experiences & memories that will last a lifetime.
