Camp Tamarack Jr. Scientists Day Camps
This fall, our Jr. Scientists will dive into six weeks of outdoor, curriculum-connected discovery! Each week focuses on a new theme:
-
Circle of Life
-
Sustainability
-
Land
-
Water
-
Air & Fire
-
Shape Shifters & Camouflage
Through experiments, outdoor adventures, creativity, and group sharing, campers build confidence and a deeper understanding of the natural world. Days are packed with science discovery, camp traditions, and activity choices like climbing tower, archery, giant swing, art in nature, and wilderness skills.
Camp Tamarack is an outdoor-first program—we head outside rain or shine, adjusting only for heavy downpours or extreme cold.
Life is better at camp… especially when you’re a Jr. Scientist!
