WILD TRACKERS CAMP: FOR KIDS ENTERING GRADES 4-7


  • Eco Hub @ Willamette Heritage Center 1313 Mill Street Southeast Salem, OR, 97301 United States (map)

Explore nature this summer! Wild Trackers, our week-long summer day camp for students entering grades 4-7, provides hands-on experiences to learn about our Willamette Valley environment and natural resources. 

With a teacher-student ratio of 1:5 and a small-group environment, our campers enjoy in-depth learning experiences through daily field trips to local parks and natural areas in the Willamette Valley including Drift Creek Falls, Savanna Haven, and Wildwood Recreation Site.  At these sites they will carry-out scientific investigations and learn how to be good stewards of the natural world. This camp includes an overnight camp-out on Thursday night. 

Location: The drop-off/pick-up location for each day is at the Eco Hub. 

Tuition: $275/child. A limited number of need-based scholarships are available. 

Applications: Open until filled. Click here to download an application or apply in-person at the Eco Hub, Tuesday-Thursday, from 12-5 pm.
