Darke County
Parks Summer Camps
For over a decade, Darke County Parks summer camps have been an annual
tradition for families. In the parks’ continued commitment to get kids
outside to learn, appreciate, and enjoy nature, they offer two styles
of camps, day camps and mini camps. The classic day camps are similar
to the format the parks has done for the last ten years featuring
crafts, take home items, lots of nature, and fun.
The day camps include hand on activities, a t-shirt, a snack, and fun
take home items. Camps for 6-7 year olds are as follows. “Things With
Wings,” a flight themed camp, will run June 19th through 23rd from 10am
to 12pm with a $65 fee being charged, and “Rocks,” a geology camp, will
run June 26th through 30th from 10am to 12pm with a $65 fee being
charged.
The camps for 8-9 year olds include “Trailblazers,” an adventure and
hiking themed camp on July 10th through 14th from 10am-12pm with a $70
fee, and “Ocean Explorers,” a sea themed camp on July 24th through 29th
from 10am-12pm with a $70 fee.
The 10-12 year old camps are “Let’s Paddle,” a canoe and kayak camp on
June 12th through 16th from 1pm to 4pm with a $75 fee, and “Survive the
Ohio Territory,” a survival camp on July 31st through August 4th from
10am-12pm with a $75 fee.
The final day camp offered is “Adventure Zone,” an action packed camp
for 13-15 year olds on July 17th through 21st from 10am-4pm with a $125
fee.
The mini camp for 6-9 year olds offers a condensed program with three
days of camp involving hands on activity, take home crafts, and lots of
time outdoors. “Christmas in July,” is a Christmas themed camp on July
5th through 7th from 10am to 12pm with a $30 fee.
