Summer Camps
Registration Begins February 1
ATTENTION: Please be sure to check the calendar for your camper’s school district before registering for camp. Woodland Park Zoo aligns its camp programs with Seattle Public Schools calendar. This school calendar has just been updated for the 2018-19 School Year due to the February 2019 snow days and Seattle Public Schools will have their last day on Thursday June 27.
As a result of this impact on summer vacation, we are currently determining what programs we will offer during the week of June 23-28 in order to best serve families while also ensuring we have enough campers to run our programs. Please check back here or reach out to us at camps@zoo.org if you have any questions about our schedule. We will post updates as soon as we have them.
