Join us this summer for our 6-part Jr. Naturalist series! This program is a 4-hour day camp for children ages 7-12. We'll be exploring different aspects of TWC during each one, however, it is not required to attend all the sessions.
Join our astronomer as we explore the solar system. We’ll explore the planets with a planetarium show and a solar system walk. If the sky is clear, we’ll safely view the Sun using a telescope to see its surface, flares, and sunspots. To wrap up our day, we’ll make 2025 Moon calendars to take home so that you will always know the Moon phase.
Please send youth with a packed lunch, water bottle and weather appropriate clothes.
