The Wharf Entertainment District will host the award winning environmental science summer camps and field trip programs beginning June. Multiple themed programs for ages 5-12 years are offered 3 weeks in June and July. Themes include animal, scientist, shark, dolphin and ocean explorers. Students ages 13-15 may apply to become counselors-in-training and gain a rich educational experience, plus school service credits. New this year is ‘Gulf Rescue’. In collaboration with Sea World and Sea Rescue television programming, the campers will learn how to respond to injured or sick marine animals plus most importantly to help prevent some of the issues related to marine debris or toxics.
