Children's Day Camps
Our children's summer day programs, "Young Archeologists" and "Life in Early Agassiz", offer children an introduction to history that's immersive and exciting. Aimed at ages 7-11, our summer day camp's are sure to provide an experience that young history lovers will never forget!
Life in Early Agassiz
Our Program Life in Early Agassiz gives children the opportunity to experience what life was like in 1800's Agassiz. Some of the program's activities include churning butter, washing clothes using a scrub board, egg racing, bean bag tossing, and farm-themed crafts. During snack time, children will be provided with a juice box and a scone, served with the freshly churned butter and homemade jam.
Young Archeologists
Do you have a young one who loves dinosaurs? Then they're gonna love Young Archeologists! In this program children have the opportunity to be a young archeologist for a day. This program's activities include digging through a sandbox for artifacts, painting wooden dinosaurs, participating in an interactive dinosaur quiz, and doing a cookie excavation. For snack time children will be provided with a juice box and a cookie.
