Summer Guided Discoveries

2020 Summer Guided Discoveries are canceled.

The health and safety of our campers and staff were our prime consideration as we reviewed the draft Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines for operating day camps during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Ultimately, we felt that we cannot provide the camp experience that families have come to know and love while adhering to the required CDC guidelines.

Please check back for information about 2021 Guided Discoveries.

Well maintained nature preserve. All animals looked well cared for, all exhibits worked with no missing pieces. Highly recommend.

Kids loved this place. The dinosaur exhibit is awesome and it’s very educational in many different ways. A place to return to for sure!

This nature preserve is one or the most important places in the State, or the country. Inventive, entertaining exhibits are sprinkled liberally in between live wild animals (all rescues that would otherwise die or fair poorly). Plenty of playground installations for the Rugrats to wear themselves out on. Every parent who can must take their children as often as possible so that the messages about nature and the environment have a chance to get across and be heard and understood. There are dozens of nature and wildlife live presentations every week. This is truly a national treasure.

Such a beautiful place. Awesome for all ages - great place for learning, exercise, and fun. Variety of animals, plants, and things to do! Love coming here.
