Dinosaur Adventure Camp!  A summer camp in Akron, Ohio at the Akron Fossils & Science Center for children ages 5-11 years

About

See pictures of our past camps on our Picasa Web Albums page and on Facebook.

Our camp is designed for children ages 5-11 years old.

Our camp counselors are preparing to kick off our 6th annual "Dinosaur Adventure Camp" in the summer of 2012! We have many new crafts, games and snacks for the campers to enjoy.

Our camp is a safe and fun environment where campers can create, explore, make new friends and make a mess!  This year each of the Children’s Camps will be five days long, and will run Monday through Friday. This year we have morning and afternoon sessions in addition to our Play Care before and after camp! Our camps are run by our mature, knowledgeable and entertaining staff.

Campers are divided into dinosaur themed teams according to their age with a camp counselor to lead each team.

The structure of our day camps is built around several learning stations.  At The Discovery Station the campers participate in a science experiment or watch an instructive demonstration, at The Craft Station the campers create fun projects, at The Snack Station the group gets a boost of energy while playing with their food, and at The Game Station the campers top the day off with a whole lot of fun!
