Bug lovers unite! Be an entomologist for a week. What's the difference between bugs and insects? Come to camp and find out as we collect and study all kinds of creepy crawlers from the forest. We will make a live trap to see who crawls around at night. Camp is filled with games and hands-on activities. 

Register your child now for summer day camp! Camp runs from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day. Children will have fun learning about nature through hands-on activities, games, and nature awareness. Camps fill quickly, and space is limited to 20 per camp. Check back soon for more registration details.

Nature Explorers Camp is a day camp experience for youth ages 7 to 11. Offered through Illinois Extension in partnership with DeKalb County Forest Preserve. This camp is led by 4-H Youth Development professionals and is open to any youth seeking outdoor adventure!
