Let’s have some fun during summer camp at The Nat! This summer, your little ones can explore nature’s wonders, get up close to real fossils, meet our scientists, and more.
We’re offering full-day camps for grades 1-8
Registration begins Monday, March 3 for members and Monday, March 10 for non-members.

Scholarships are available for grades 1–8 through a generous donation from the Robert and Helen E. Grant Foundation. We will begin accepting applications on Monday, March 3. We encourage families to send their applications in as soon as possible. Once all available scholarships are awarded, new applicants will be placed on a waitlist.
Do you know a teenager aged 16 or older who would like to earn community service hours in a fun environment working with children? We are now accepting applications here for summer camp volunteers.

As we begin the 2025 summer camp season, The Nat’s number one priority continues to be the health and well-being of our campers, staff, and volunteers—ensuring that everyone can safely participate in each day of the camp program. As a reminder, campers should not attend their program if they are feeling sick or experiencing symptoms of any cold-like virus until those symptoms start to improve and there is no fever for 24 hours (without the use of fever-reducing medication). If your camper tests positive for COVID-19, please do not attend camp and notify our Reservation Coordinator.
Campers are expected to show respect for their fellow campers, instructors, staff, the Museum, and the environment. Disruptive behavior and physical aggression are not permitted. If a problem persists, campers may be removed from the program with no refund. Please review behavior expectations with your child before their first day of camp. We want everyone to make friends and memories that last a lifetime, and we look forward to sharing the wonders of the natural world with your child.
