MSPCA Children's Summer Camp

For those little animal lovers in your family, the MSPCA Children's Summer Camp offers a heart-warming adventure. Set against the backdrop of Nevins Farm, this day camp runs for eight sunny weeks, with each week offering a new session of furry fun. Here, your kids don't just play with animals; they learn the importance of compassion, responsibility, and respect for all life forms and the environment. It's a life lesson that echoes far beyond the farm's boundaries. Every day, campers roll up their sleeves and join the dedicated barn and adoption center staff in caring for a variety of animals. They'll get their hands dirty mucking out horse stalls and cleaning rabbit cages, but it's not all hard work. There's also plenty of time for feeding cats, walking dogs, and socializing with the farm's many residents. But the MSPCA camp isn't just about hands-on experience. It's about educating the next generation of animal lovers. Daily discussions on animal welfare and guest speakers from the field provide a deeper understanding of the joy and responsibility of caring for our four-legged friends. Of course, it wouldn't be summer camp without a dash of traditional fun. Crafting, singing songs, and playing games punctuate the day, ensuring that campers return home with more than just muddy boots, but a wealth of unforgettable experiences and cherished memories. So, if your child dreams of a summer surrounded by animals, the MSPCA Children's Summer Camp might just be the perfect destination. But be warned: they might come home begging for a new pet!
