We want you to join us for Camp Fire Summer Day Camp in Aledo!
This summer, we will get to the bottom of the ever-constant childhood question, “Why?” as campers discover how things work. From vacuums and toasters to curve balls, mass transit and weather patterns, no question will be left unexplored.
Day Campers will get an insider’s view as they see first-hand how things work while using critical thinking skills, research and their own ingenuity.
Plus:
- hands-on experiments,
- STEAM projects,
- special guest speakers,
- weekly swimming and
- field trips will keep campers active and engaged all summer.
And that’s just the beginning!
Campers will love that no two days are the same as they explore all summer long.
Two daily snacks, all field trip and material fees are included in the program price.
Please pack a lunch with a cooler or ice pack as no refrigeration is available. We are a nut-free program. Please DO NOT send any nut products (almonds, almond milk, peanut butter, trail mix with nuts, etc.)
