Wildlife Encounters Summer Camp  

The Busch Wildlife Sanctuary is dedicated to serving the community by providing learning experiences about the fascinating wonders of Florida's wildlife and natural ecosystems.  This summer, we are proud to offer six one-week programs for children ages 6 to 12 years old.  The interaction with live animals makes these programs uniquely valuable and will offer your child a wonderful experience in learning about nature.  Children will find the Sanctuary's summer program to be informative, entertaining, and extremely educational. Children will participate in several fun activities designed to teach them about south Florida wildlife, the ecosystems in which they live, and how humans can live in harmony with nature.  They will also enjoy arts & crafts, sports, and more.  An  experienced teacher, along with trained counselors and instructors, will lead the group through a week of fun-filled learning experiences unlike any they have ever had!   Each week, their experience will include a field trip to a location such as the J.W. Corbett Wildlife Management Area, Lion Country Safari, Loxahatchee Wildlife Refuge, and Jonathan Dickinson State Park.  Some field trips may include water activities.

The cost per week for the Encounters Program is $225.
