Critter Camps Allow Hands-On Animal Experience

Posted on June 21, 2012

Helen Woodward Animal Center will be holding a Summer Critter Camp from June 11 – Aug. 17 for grades Pre-K to 8th. Camps are each one week long and themed, allowing for the opportunity to pick and choose based on your child’s preference.

Campers will meet horses, bunnies, birds, snakes, lizards and much more at the hands on camp, where they will also get the chance to care for and feed them. The excitement reaches past animal meet-and-greets and extends into animal related crafts, games and activities. Classes are organized by grades to ensure age and developmentally appropriate activities that teach respect, compassion and how to provide a lifetime of care for animals.

The Helen Woodward Animal Center is a non-profit organization that gives 100% of its proceeds to saving the lives of the animals at the center.
