Darke County Parks host week-long and MINI day camps

School is almost over and summer is on its way! What are your kids going to do this summer vacation? The Darke County Park District is hosting five, week-long summer camps and two Mini Camps. Three of this year’s camps include an overnight adventure! “Each year our camps focus on new, fun and creative ways to discover nature,” says Senior Naturalist, Robb Clifford. “Our main goal is for each camper to have fun all while enhancing their appreciation and understanding of the natural world around them.” Camp information is listed below.

Camp for Ages 6-7; July 14-18, 9:30am-12:00pm

Float, Flutter and Fly—Participants of this camp will spend the week digging, building and discovering. The fee for this camp is $65. Registration and fees are due June 16.

Camps for Ages 8-9; July 7-11, 9:30am-12:00pm
