Audubon Adventure Camp is back! In order to keep our campers, volunteers, and staff safe during the COVID-19 pandemic, we're offering small camper cohorts of about 10 campers.
Audubon Adventure Summer Camp is an inclusive outdoor experience for children ages 4 to 8 years old.
Our campers build lasting friendships with their peers as they create, explore, investigate and, most importantly, enjoy the great outdoors. Audubon Adventure Summer Camp is a proud Partner of the National Inclusion Project. We welcome campers of ALL abilities.
One week of Audubon Adventure Summer Camp is $500, excluding the week of July 6th, which is $400. Camp runs Monday through Friday from 9am until 3pm. Drop-off begins at 8:40am. Please review our cancellation policy below.
