General Summer Camp Information

Sciencenter Summer Day Camp combines the traditional fun and games of summer camp with exciting, hands-on science activities, experiments, field trips, visits from special presenters, and museum exploration. Camp days begin and end at the Sciencenter, and include trips on foot to offsite venues. Each session includes brand new activities as well as old favorites.

Our small camp size of 24 campers per session and a staff to camper ratio of 1:4 allows your camper to participate in high-quality programming and develop personal relationships with the staff.

Sessions

Camp session dates will be announced on this web page in the Spring.

Activities

Our activities are designed for girls and boys entering grades 2 - 6 in the fall of 2011. We plan an assortment of active, physical games, focused classroom experiences, special presentations, and free exploration of the museum and the science park. Each session includes several field trips to venues that are within one mile, such as Stewart Park, Cascadilla Gorge, and the Farmer's Market Pavilion. We follow safe pedestrian rules and stop for water breaks as we travel on foot. We are happy to make reasonable accommodations for campers with physical limitations.
