Waterbugs: Nature's Treasures (for kids who have completed 1st or 2nd grades)

---

Event Summary

This camp is for children who have completed 1st or 2nd grades.

July 6th-10th 9:00AM-11:30AM

Calling all explorers! Search for nature’s treasures as we follow maps, make mini-rafts, investigate wildlife, and step into creeks and marshes. Discover Story County natural areas through hands-on activities, art, stories, games, and journaling. We may visit the following areas (locations may change depending on water levels):  

McFarland Park: Pond, prairie, forest, and creek—we’ll experience several habitats and the toads, birds, and bugs that live there. Cooper’s Prairie Marsh:  This restored marsh adventure is a natural "jungle" of cattails, sedges, rushes, muskrats, yellow-headed blackbirds, and dragonflies. McFarland Creek: We’ll flip rocks in the riffles and shallows of the creek and search for crawdads, water striders, and natural clay.

No refunds are available for cancellations. If needed, Nature Connect, our service assistance program, provides a discount towards the cost of SCC camping, educational programs, and more. Contact us at 515-232-2516 to discuss.
