ZooCamp
ZooCamp
ZooCamp is one of our most popular programs, and it’s no wonder why –it’s the wildest way to spend a week during school vacation! Preschoolers through fifth-graders can have a blast during winter, spring and summer school vacations with a week of games, hands-on activities, crafts, animal encounters and tours of the Zoo!

Tadpole Academy is a great way to introduce your 4 – 5 year old to ZooCamp at Roger Williams Park Zoo! Each day is only three hours long and includes stories, crafts, games and Zoo exploration in a safe, small group of only 10 campers per week.

ZooCamp on the Move
After careful consideration and lengthy program evaluation, it has become evident that it is no longer possible for RWPZoo to offer Natural Navigators and Ed-Venturous Travels at affordable prices due to the rising cost of transportation. Effective Summer 2012, RWPZoo will no longer offer ZooCamp on the Move.
While the staff at RWPZoo would love to continue to offer a ZooCamp experience for 6th – 12th graders, we are restricted by limited Zoo classroom space.
Please know that this decision was not made lightly. ZooCamp on the Move holds a special place in all of our hearts.
