SUMMER CAMP UPDATE
2020 Summer Camps Have Been Canceled
It is with great sadness we announce that the summer camps scheduled in 2020 have been canceled. This was a very difficult decision to make but was done in order to preserve the zoo you know and love. We understand this is a challenging time for your families and this only adds to the disappointments you may face.

ABOUT THE PROGRAM
Woodland Park Zoo Camps inspire children to make conservation a priority in their lives by advancing their STEAM skills, building connections to nature, and exploring the animals of our world.
Woodland Park Zoo offers school-year break camps and summer camp. Camp dates follow Seattle Public Schools' calendar.
Camps are divided into tiers by camper age. Each tier offers developmentally appropriate curricula that support Next Generation Science Standards. Curricula themes are centered around the zoo's mission to save wildlife and inspire everyone to make conservation a priority in their lives.
Camp Waitlist
If your preferred camp session is full, you may register online for our camp waitlist. If space becomes available, we will contact waitlisted families with an offer and deadline for accepting the open space.
Please double check your confirmation, if you have registered for a waitlist we will contact you if we have an opening to finish your registration.
