The Parklands Outdoor Adventure day camps let kids experience nature up close through activities like creek walking, hiking, kayaking, and biking. Campers participate in hands-on science investigations outdoors and in the classroom! We offer these outdoor exploration-based camps to children in grades K–6 in the winter, spring, summer, and fall. Camps are also offered for Grades 7-9 in the summer.

Outdoor Adventure Camps
Learn and explore.
All of our programs balance in-classroom learning for elementary to middle grade kids with hands-on outdoor explorations, so kids can be kids. Depending on the season, activities include hiking, fishing, games, archery, kayaking, biking and creek walking. Campers must bring a snack, a bottle of water, and their own sack lunch each day. Members of The Parklands receive a discounted camp price. Scholarships are available for students who attend Title I schools. Scroll below for a link to more detailed camp information.
Camp hours are Mon-Fri 9 am–4 pm. Drop-off is from 8:30 – 9 am and pick-up is from 4 – 4:30 pm.
