Summer Day Camps

2020 Summer Day Camps are full. We are not taking registrations at this time.

For the safety of our campers and staff during the COVID-19 pandemic, Summer Day Camps will be heavily modified in 2020. These changes will include limited group sizes and a half-day rather than full day experience. Activities will be limited to those that keep participants outdoors as much as possible, and new policies regarding social distancing and mask-wearing will be put in place. Although things will look a little different, our passionate educators are as committed as ever to providing a safe and memorable experience for our campers!

Please e-mail Amy Wesner at awesner@binderparkzoo.org or call (269)979-1351 with questions.
