Summer Camps at Beaver Creek


While it seems like the snow is never ending, summer will come before we know it and bring one of the best times of the year at Beaver Creek! It’s not too early to plan how you will get out to the reserve to enjoy the warm weather, and luckily, summer camp registration is already open. Summer camp opportunities are available for kids from grades kindergarten through 8th. Whether your camper dreams of a multi-day experience or a single-day excursion, there are options every child will love.

To take advantage of our most popular summer attraction, the Budding Butterflies camp is the perfect choice for kindergarteners and 1st graders! Campers will learn all about these beautiful insects native to the area in our very own butterfly house. By the end of the experience, they’ll tell you that they want to be a lepidopterist or a butterfly scientist when they grow up.

To get to know another kind of flying friend, 3rd through 5th graders will love Soaring Scientists. Campers will learn about what birds can be seen and heard in Beaver Creek. They will also get to meet our own bird ambassadors (am-bird-ssadors, if you will) and experience our bird banding program. Campers will come home able to identify the birds singing in their own backyard!

For older campers in 7th and 8th grade whose only wish is to get on the water, Outdoor Water Adventures will take them to do just that. Part of the day will be spent kayaking at Coon Fork Park, any experience level welcome. The rest of the day, campers will learn about Wisconsin’s fish and try their hand at catching some themselves.

Beaver Creek summer camps are an impactful experience that your child will remember forever! Camps are filling up fast! To see the full list of camp offerings and to register your child, visit our website here.

If you are interested in volunteering, spots may still be available. Email outreach@beavercreekreserve.org for more information.
