Out-of-School Day Camps
For younger students who love exploring nature and learning about animals, Maymont offers a stimulating alternative to staying home when school is out! On select dates when students are out of school, avoid the scramble for day care and enroll your K – 3rd grade student in one of Maymont’s educational and fun day camps.
Give your kids a stimulating experience in Maymont’s 100-acre classroom!
Day-campers will meet native animals, explore gardens, discover the past and learn about nature. Your student will explore all that Maymont has to offer through scavenger hunts, animal encounters, nature and history walks and interacting with animal keepers.
Each day from 9am to 3pm, Maymont’s experienced staff will lead students through engaging activities, games and crafts, tailored by grade level. Each session will have two experienced adult educators with a 9:1 student/teacher ratio. Staff are trained in First Aid and CPR. Just pack a lunch and reusable water bottle; snacks will be provided. Spaces for each program are limited.
