2013 Summer Camps & Registration

The wildest summer camps in town are at Lincoln Children’s Zoo! Each day campers will explore animal habitats, talk with real zookeepers, study animal behaviors and take part in fun, educational activities. Zoo Camps are led by skilled instructors who will guide your child through interactive learning opportunities and behind-the-scenes tours.

Camps are separated into different age groups, dates, times and topics. Register for a Morning and Afternoon session during the same week to make it a Full Day camp.

Last year over 800 children participated in Zoo Summer Camps.
Camps may sell out. It is recommended to register early.

How to register:
1. Choose appropriate age group
2. Find a date, time and topic
3. Register
