Camp registrations are processed in the order in which they are received.
This day-long camp for ages 10-13 years puts campers’ survival skills to the test! They will develop new skills, such as how to toss a cast net, how to bait a crab trap, how to drag a seine, and how to bring in the catch of the day while pier fishing – as they get up close and personal with each animal species brought ashore. The educators from the Dauphin Island Sea Lab will share stories throughout the day as campers learn about coastal Alabama’s natural resources.
Campers are outside much of the day. There will be frequent water breaks, and a mid-afternoon snack break (snacks are provided but you’re welcome to send your camper’s favorite).
Parents/guardians are not required to attend, but are welcome to join us.
What to wear and bring: Be sure to wear comfortable shoes and clothes that can get wet and messy. Campers will need to bring a swimsuit, refillable water bottle, sunscreen, towel, and lunch (refrigeration provided).
