Zoo Camp | Photos for Conservation – sold out

For ages 12-14. Only Full Day Sessions available. Choose one week only. 

Explore the conservation issues facing many of the world’s most endangered animals while experiencing the excitement of capturing a once-in-a-lifetime photograph.  Campers will get closer than ever to their favorite zoo animals while having the opportunity to meet the keepers taking care of them.  Campers will be responsible for providing their own digital (non-cellphone) camera.  A family and friends viewing party will be held on Friday afternoon to highlight each camper’s favorite photos.  Campers will take home a flash drive containing all of their photographs.

Please note: We understand that children outside of this age group may want to attend, but we ask that only those of the appropriate age group join us. Our classes and programs are designed specifically for the age group listed. Your reservation will be canceled if your child is not the correct age.
