2013 Summer Camps
2013 enviro-camps keep kids learning during summer break
Summer doesn’t have to create idle minds. Northwest Indiana parents are invited to engage their children in learning while having fun by registering them for participation in either Earth Camp or Camp Water and Me, two enviro-camps run by the Recycling & Waste Reduction District of Porter County and offered through the City of Portage Parks and Recreation Department.
Appropriate for children ages 6 through 12, the enviro-camps help to introduce kids to environmental issues in an enjoyably entertaining way. The fee for each camp is $10 per child, and both camps run four days from 9 a.m. to noon and are led by Mr. Abe, the district’s educator, who brings environmental education to thousands of students each year in schools throughout Porter County.
