Registration opens for Salamonie children’s day camp

Indiana DNR Release:

Registration for Salamonie Reservoir’s “Reservoirs Rock!” children’s day camp has opened. The Aug. 3-6 camp will focus on Indiana geology, spending one day each on rocks, minerals, fossils, and land forms.

Children ages 7 to 11 are invited. Each day provides a variety of fun activity sessions from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Children can make their own quicksand, pan for gold, canoe, hike, fish and swim, as well as enjoy games, crafts, movies and more.

The week’s activities will be guided by interpretive naturalists trained to provide a safe and fun environment to learn about our world. A snack will be provided. Children need to bring a sack lunch with drink each day.
