ANIMAL CAMP
Does your child love animals?
 For
over 20 years The SPCA’s week-long summer
daycamp has offered children a unique mix of
exciting and educational hands-on experiences. Animal Camp builds
self-esteem and nurtures compassion by instilling a sense of stewardship
and wonder for the world around us. Program topics include California’s
endangered species, animal habitats and behavior, and simple ways to
protect the environment. A highlight each year is the tour of The
SPCA’s Wildlife Rescue and Rehabilitation
Center to see how staff care for injured and
orphaned animals.
Attendees hear about animal-related jobs from professional guest
speakers and have plenty of time for
creative art and drama activities before receiving their graduation
certificates.
