Splash and Science Day Camp

Held at Red Run Park near Waynesboro, Pa.

Learn all about streams and the critters who live in them in a summer fun day camp!

Spend the day with Buttonwood educators as you explore the wonders of water! Campers will have the chance to study macroinvertebrates up close, create a craft, and play in the stream—the perfect way to beat the summer heat!

Please remember to wear sunscreen and pack lunch/snacks and lots of water. Kids should wear clothing and closed-toed shoes that can get wet (or a second pair of socks and shoes), and bring a towel. For ages 7–12. Camp fee: $60 for members of Buttonwood Nature Center; $65 general public.

Also offered on July 9 and August 13. There are two more Splash & Science Day Camp sessions on Thursday, July 9 and Thursday, August 13. Students can sign up for any session, or all three if they love playing in the stream!
