I was reading the newspaper this morning and saw 2, great, low cost camps that are for children who are interested in nature and conservation.
The first camp is for ages 8-14 years old. It is given by the Md. Dept of Natural Resources at the Fair Hill Nature Center. There are 6 different sessions offered on Saturdays starting June 13th. Cost for all sessions is $10. This is part of the Maryland Junior Ranger Program. For more information or to register your child call (410) 398-1246.
The second camp is a residential program for middle school students that runs from August 3 – 7. Application deadline is June 12th. The cost is $125 with partial scholarships available. It is called “Land and Water Connection” and is given in Dorchester County. More information is found here:
