Backyard Explorers
Backyard Explorers is summer the way it was meant to be - with trees and a creek, areas to explore and friends to meet. The day camp is nestled in Markham Nature Park off Babel Lane and Cowell Road in Concord.
Children come back year after year for the exciting trips, games, nature, swimming, sports, songs, outdoor cooking, special events and the camaraderie of other campers and great leaders. The programs are week-long throughout the summer with extended early morning and late afternoon hours for parents who need a day care alternative.
In addition, with every registration we guarantee a week packed with fun and adventure, including: exciting games, arts and crafts, and cooking projects. Mini trips will be to local parks for BBQ's, bowling, swimming, and Brenden Theaters. Some weeks may will include Wildlife Shows, Mad Science Experiments, Magic Shows and a Backyard Carnival. All this plus adventure trips to great local attractions.
Registration begins February 15th
