With insects as the theme for the June sessions, campers will become amateur naturalists themselves by engaging in science, hands-on activities and crafts. Although insects will be the theme, campers will certainly encounter and experience the other animals in the swamp. See the tentative schedule at http://sc.audubon.org/PDFs/schedule_2012.pdf.

Campers will spend the days outside
exploring the various habitats throughout the sanctuary. Those unwilling to
stomp in the swamp while getting wet and dirty should not apply. Activities will
include GPS navigation, canoeing, fishing, wildlife identification, and
whatever else we encounter!
Limit: 15 campers.
