Summer Science Academy

 

Looking for a unique summer camp experience for your children this summer?  Join us for one of the Conservancy's Summer Science Academy programs!  These science-based camps feature rotating curriculum so each year is a new experience! 

 

For our youngest students, 3-5 years old, we are offering  "Green Growing Things".   From sprouts to seeds, we will focus on our green friends. We will trace the growth of plants, dig in the soil and taste the fruits and vegetables of our labor!

 

Summer Explorers is a week-long program for children who have completed Kindergarten through 3 ^rd grade.  This year the topic is "Abiotics".  The non-living factors that we all depend on will take center stage as we learn how sunlight, soil, water and air make life happen everywhere! 

 

For children who have completed 4 ^th through 6 ^th grade, join us for a week of Summer Afield- "Habitats!"  We will journey into each of these habitats to understand what makes them unique and learn about the special adaptations of their inhabitants.

 

For children completing Kindergarten through 4 ^th grade, who just can't get enough of the creek, join us for the one day, "Exploring the East Branch Creek".  We will spend a full morning exploring life in the East Branch Creek and the afternoon learning about the animals that depend on the creek.

 

Space is limited so don't delay your registration. Dates, times and registration information here.

Support our Youth Conservation Corps as they paddle over 60 miles on the Perkiomen Creek, Schuylkill River and Delaware River. The goal of this expedition is to generate community support for the protection of the Perkiomen Creek and its hopeful addition to the  Pennsylvania Water Trail Program .
