Deering Estate’s Nature and Science camp has weekly activities that include science experiments, hikes, and crafts. Campers will spend at least half of each day outdoors, weather permitting.  Each week will have one off-site field trip for everyone with locations varying week to week. There is an additional cost of $5-$10 for these. Expedition campers (ages 9-14) will also go kayaking/canoeing once a week!
