Nature Camp is a fun and educational day camp for children ages 7-12, hosted by the Brazoria County Parks Department with lots of help from the Cradle of Texas Master Naturalists.
The camp will take place at Camp Mohawk County Park, nestled among the pine trees along Chocolate Bayou near Alvin.
Hands-on activities are conducted by the Master Naturalists, who are expert at bringing together fun and informative sessions to entertain and educate inquisitive youngsters.
Nature Camp is 9 a.m. - noon from June 5th through 8th. This half-day camp takes full advantage of cooler summer mornings - before temperatures make outdoor activities uncomfortable.
At a cost of only $30 per child, Nature Camp is an affordable option for almost every family.
All programming is centered on nature studies and environmental stewardship and involves both information and hands-on activity.
Children will learn about birds, habitat, and fly-ways; they will experience the diversity of insect life and the wonder of aquatic habitats by actually capturing and examining the tiny creatures sharing their world. Reptiles are a special and very popular subject, as is a hike along the park’s trail system, where guides introduce campers to various local species of trees and vegetation.
While not a truly ‘nature’ subject, basic archery instruction is provided as both a fun activity and an introduction to the mental and physical discipline essential to many pursuits.
Nature Camp is both fun and informative. Space is limited to only 30 participants - pre-registration is required.
