Get ready for 14 weeks of wild adventures, muddy hands, and nature-powered fun! Each week brings a brand-new theme to spark every camper’s imagination. This summer, the great outdoors will be our guide as our nature scouts build forts, create earthy art, hunt for hidden treasures on scavenger hikes, play forest games, and discover the magic tucked into every tree, trail, and stream. Let the wilderness lead the way!
We’re offering two camp options to fit your summer vibe:
3-Day Camps: Held Tuesday–Thursday each week (with an optional Friday add-on for just $85)
1-Day Friday Camps: Offered three Fridays each month in June, July, and August — perfect for a weekly dose of nature adventure!
Camp locations will rotate between Encinitas, Carlsbad and Oceanside. All camp hours will be 10:00am-3:00pm. Designed for ages 4-12, our camps are bursting with fun!
COST (per camp session): $315 (1st sibling gets a 10% discount, any additional siblings 5% discount)
