Camp Zoo: Long Island Summer Day Camp
Registration Instructions / Rates / Online Registration / Flier (PDF)
The Long Island Game Farm is inviting children from all over Long Island to Camp Zoo in Manorville, New York. Camp Zoo is a weeklong summer day camp with weekly sessions running through July and August.
Designed for children 4 - 11 years of age, Camp Zoo will provide children with
a fun-filled, rich
learning environment they will remember all year.
Each day at Camp Zoo will offer new and exciting experiences such as zoo-tours, close-up animal encounters, and nature walks. In addition, there will be arts and crafts activities, animal stories and sing-alongs, nature-related games, and informative animal tours. Special behind the scenes activities will be offered that are only available to children who attend Camp Zoo.
Camp Zoo has been developed with the guidance of Irene Nowell, former Superintendent of Schools at Remsenburg-Speonk UFSD and current Education Field Supervisor at Dowling College.
Each session will take place at the Game Farm from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. Camp is held rain or shine. Campers will receive a simple mid-morning and afternoon snack. Campers will provide their their own lunch. We provide water and juice.
Campers will take part in a wide variety of activities and projects. When selecting a week for your child, please choose the appropriate age grouping based on the table below!
