Registration Open for Nature Day Camps at Lake Katherine

Lake Katherine Nature Center & Botanic Gardens in Palos Heights offers Nature Day Camps during the summer for children ages 5–15 years old. Participants will experience the beauty and fun of nature by paddling a canoe, wading in the waterfall, fishing in the lake, hands-on animal encounters in the Wildlife Discovery Center, outdoor games, crafts, and many more activities.

Camps for ages 7–15 years old run from 10 a.m.—2 p.m. on Monday through Friday, and each week-long session costs $95 per child. Sessions for each age group are available in June, July, and August. Starting in 2014, Lake Katherine will also offer a new “Forest Explorers” day camp for 5–6 year olds that will cost $25 per two-hour session and will be offered on specific days in June and July.

Nature Day camps require pre-registration by the week before the camp begins. To learn more about camps at Lake Katherine, please call 708-361-1873 or visit http://www.lakekatherine.org/school-programs.cfm.
