Nature Camp - Session 1 - Frogs & Friends

Session 1  June 19-23rd

Frogs & Friends

Explore the slimy world of frogs, salamanders & bugs at Whittemore's ponds, streams and waterways! Find turtles, grasshoppers and water bugs to study. Uncover what allows frogs and other wetland organisms to survive and thrive. Explore nature & its wildlife with hikes, wild-craft projects and more.

With the summers getting hotter we are adding Sprinkle Time - Free Play while cooling off in the Gardens of Whittemore.
