Did you know Ottawa County Parks offers Summer Camps for children ages 4-5 w/ a caregiver & children ages 6-8? If this sounds like the age range for your students...please consider clicking HERE to print a pdf flyer of our summer camp dates to hand out to your students. We are happy to provide you with hard copy flyers by request. 

According to a National Wildlife Federation report, today's kids are indoors far more than previous generations were with children between the ages of 8-10 years old being exposed to 7.5 hours of media per day. Only 1/4 of children are reported to play outside daily. YOU can help US change that! We seek to connect students to nature through enriching outdoor experiences! Studies show that children who regularly spend time outdoors are healthier and happier. If you can, help us spread the word and share our flyer with your students.
