About this camp
Children engage with the natural world through Youth Programs - Learning, an outdoor science program in Huntsville, AL. This day program focuses on nature exploration, offering hands-on discovery within Monte Sano Nature Preserve. Participants investigate local ecosystems by searching for water critters and fossils, learning to read maps, and identifying animal tracks. This primary activity-focused program develops observational skills and environmental understanding through direct engagement with the forest environment.
