Summer Day Camp
Science + Nature + TFT = Fun!

  A Visit From Trucker the Red-Footed Tortoise!

From our base camp in Golden Gate Park, campers will hike outdoors, meet live Tree Frog Treks Animal Ambassadors, do hands-on activities that include chemistry experiments, art, games, and songs.

Tree Frog Treks makes science come alive, and campers will make new discoveries every day in our outdoor laboratory -- Nature! They'll sharpen their observation skills, search the sky for hawks, flip logs for salamanders, smell the flowers, and charge up their curiosity! Learn about marvelous nature right here in the city, gaining knowledge about local flora & fauna like falcons, slugs, salamanders and more. Come out and get eye to eye and toe to toe with your favorite Tree Frog Treks animals, like Jake the Corn Snake, Savannah the Monitor Lizard, and Neptune the Blue-Tongued Skink!

Still need more reasons to Register for Tree Frog Treks Summer Camp? Here are eight!

With ten weeks of fun and adventure to choose from, your future scientists can sign up for one or more weekly sessions...so strap on your backpack, pack your lunch, use your eagle eyes and deer ears and let's go adventuring!
