About this camp

Are you passionate about animals, science, and conservation? Explore the surprising, squirmy, squishy world of invertebrates in this exciting camp!

We’ll take a closer look at a wide variety of invertebrates, including insects, arachnids, mollusks, and crustaceans. You’ll learn to compare and contrast the anatomical and physiological aspects of representative invertebrate animals to discover evidence of how all organisms can be related. You’ll practice lab skills through multiple dissections that will deepen your understanding and appreciation for the diversity of our animal kingdom.

This summer, immerse yourself in science as you uncover possible career pathways, including veterinary medicine, wildlife biology, and zoology.
