Spaces are still available for the Connecticut Audubon Society’s summer camp in Fairfield, which offers full and half-day sessions in a unique learning environment. Campers ages 4 through 14 attend week-long, science and nature-themed programs that use the varied habitats of the Larsen Wildlife Sanctuary and the Center’s interactive classroom facilities to inspire and build a life-long connection to, and appreciation for, the natural world.
The staff is led by teacher-naturalists, with education/science experience, and is trained in first aid, CPR and Epi-Pen. High staff-to-camper ratio ensures a safe camp experience. Options for before and after care, and “lunch bunch” are available for half-day sessions.
