Day-Off Camp: Ponds and Streams

When schools are closed, we’re open! Bring your kids to the Schuylkill Center for a day of fun and exploration.

Did you know that many insects get their start as larvae in ponds and streams? From dragonfly nymphs to mayfly larvae, learn about the fascinating lives of these miniature creatures. Scoop in our ponds and wade in our streams to uncover what’s hidden under the mud and between the rocks.

For ages 5–12 | 8:00 am–3:00 pm | Members: $60 | Non-members: $70

Extended day until 6:00 pm is available for an additional $20/day.

Please bring a packed lunch, water bottle, and an extra set of clothes. Wear weather-appropriate clothing that can get dirty.

Please note, day-off camps will be canceled ONE WEEK PRIOR if the minimum number of participants is not reached. Please register soon; space is limited.
