The Prophet Aquatic Research & Outreach Center (PAROC) and Emporia Recreation Center are excited to partner and provide a unique summer camp experience for young learners. Join us for a fun-filled week of hands-on learning experiences focusing on the natural world. Science topics are introduced in an active learning environment, with lessons that will include nature mysteries and investigations, water quality experiments, understanding energy sources, and many opportunities to learn about our native plants and animals up close. We will also incorporate cross-curricular lessons, including creative writing, art and math. Campers will spend quality time outside, having a great time observing nature using tools like binoculars, magnifying lenses and microscopes.
