Hosted in one-week sessions, this year’s camp will have an emphasis on animals. Both fun and educationally enriching, activities at Brookgreen Gardens and Huntington Beach State Park will include arts and crafts, storytelling and cruising freshwater creeks and rivers by boat. This camp is for rising fourth and fifth graders. A two-day camp for rising sixth and seventh graders will be held July 5–6, and Camp Brookgreen for Adults takes place July 24.
