All camps focus on one topic for that week and include hands-on activities, games, crafts, and more! All camps are taught by Hendricks County Parks & Recreation naturalists who have passed background checks and have experience in teaching campers of all ages.Advance registration is required for all camps. On-site registration is not available. Registration opens February 1, 2023, and many of our camps fill up very quickly, so don’t delay!
