          Wild Adventures Camp • 6-9 yrs

          Wild Adventures Camps are full-day camps for elementary-age
          children filled with discovery, fun, and wild adventures. Play
          nature games, make new creations, and explore the trails and
          habitats of the park with new friends. Some themes will be
          repeated twice over the summer. Camps with the same theme will
          have the same content. Bring lunch, drinking water, two snacks,
          and a backpack daily. Camp meets at the Cooper Mountain
          Nature Park.

          A $30 deposit option is available for this camp. See the Camp
          Deposits and Balances box on page 48 for details.
