Overnight to Kansas City Zoo and Aquarium – The July 17-21 camp week includes an overnight trip to Kansas City Zoo & Aquarium. Campers will be driven to Kansas City on Thursday afternoon by a Camp Supervisor and one of their counselors. Dinner Thursday and breakfast and lunch on Friday are included in the cost of this camp. Because of this trip, this week of camp has a higher cost. Campers who elect not to travel to Kansas City will NOT be able to attend camp on Thursday or Friday this week. Camp cost will not be pro-rated for campers who elect not to attend the overnight trip.
