Science Camp 2018 is scheduled for July 29th through August 2nd. Our goals are to create awareness of environmental issues, resource sustainability, land and habitat conservation. Our program provides the opportunity to experience this unique environment, to expand knowledge of the natural world and to instill a sense of stewardship and personal responsibility.

Camp begins with orientation on Sunday evening, July 29th. There are three workshops offered daily, Monday through Thursday. Workshops in hydroelectricity, geology, astronomy, animal husbandry and Everson Ranch, aquatic entomology, plant ecology, photography, a bat hike to the Orient Mine, along with yoga, art, campfires and s'mores. The science is geared to children age 7 - 12, with a maximum of 30 participants.

New this year there will be a cancellation fee of $25 per child if you cancel after May 31st. Parents may tag along and enjoy the workshops or visit the hot springs.
