Golden gate park

Tree Frog Treks is back for another summer of Wild Science at Golden Gate Park, with both Half-Day Camps and Full-Day Camps available! During each camp session, campers will meet live animals, perform fun experiments, build connections and critical thinking skills through adventuring in nature with peers and instructors. Come meet Blondie the Burmese Python, Trucker the Tortoise, Artemis the Blue-tongued Skink, and Jumpy the White’s Tree Frog - to name some of our nearly 100 Animal Ambassadors! We play games and tell stories to bring many unseen aspects of our urban habitats to life for our campers.  We Wander and Wonder Together!
