SUMMER DAY CAMP: TIME TRAVELERS
Travel back in time to learn the history of Allerton and its people at Summer Day Camp: Time Travelers on July 14-18 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Putting on their explorer hats and using various methods of “travel” around the park, campers will dig into the search for Allerton of yester-year, always returning each day to the present to showcase their findings!
Register 5- to 7-year-olds as Acorns, while 8- to 11-year-olds are Adventurers.
$200/person for the week*. The following add-ons are available at registration: Early Arrivers from 7-8 a.m. ($15), After Care from 3-5:30 p.m. ($35), and lunch for the week ($25). Campers can also bring their own lunch.

Register your Adventurer (ages 8-11) here. (Adventurers also have the opportunity to go to the Monticello Family Aquatic Center twice a week. Learn more here.)
*Registration fees include two snacks, camp T-shirt and all necessary materials. Campers will need to bring their own water bottle, sunscreen, bug spray and a change of clothes/shoes.
