Camp

Bring your sense of curiosity as we search for wildlife tracks, make ice art, play games in the snow, and explore our favorite trails, giant boulders, and secret dens! We’ll look for animal signs, listen for bird calls, and engineer our own winter forts. Activities will include games, crafts, and plant study, so come prepared for an immersive, nature-packed experience.

In 2026, this three-day February Vacation Camp for kids in Grades K through 4 will take place from Monday, February 23 to Wednesday, February 25 at the Harris Center. Registration for this camp opens at 9 a.m. on January 2.

For more than 40 years, fields, forests, ponds, and mountains have served as the backdrop for the Harris Center’s summer programs, which offer outdoor explorations for kids in pre-school through middle school. Harris Center summer campers hike, play, climb, canoe, camp, paint, build, sing, and learn alongside skilled naturalists. Scholarships are available.

In 2026, our summer camps will take place from July 13 and 24, with a special leadership camp June 29 through July 2. The summer camp brochure is mailed out in mid-February, with registration opening at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, March 3. Summer camp fills quickly, so registration on the morning of March 3 is highly recommended.
