Fort Worth Zoo

Detailed Information
Listing Description

Campers will spend an action-packed week exploring the Zoo with other campers and counselors!  They’ll get up-close and personal with activities like feeding giraffes, touching stingrays and meeting animals at Base Camp! When they aren’t hiking across the Zoo, campers will be unleashing their imaginations and discovering the world around them!

Each week is filled with immersive learning experiences for kids ages 4 to 17. Programs vary by age group but each one explores the wonders of wildlife and nature through exciting activities and animal encounters. Plus, campers get to enjoy the best of the Fort Worth Zoo and the great outdoors!

New Zoo adventures await! Campers ages 4 to 10 will hike throughout the Zoo before opening, cool off at Safari Splash, feed giraffes and learn at live animal presentations. Plus, they’ll have all the fun of traditional summer camp with arts & crafts, outdoor games, a field day and friendly competitions to see which team has the best cheer! 

Middle School and High School Summer Zoo Camp gives campers special behind-the-scenes access at the Fort Worth Zoo. From mammals and ectotherms to veterinary and nutrition, each session allows campers to focus on their areas of interest as they get up close to their favorite Zoo residents.

Overnight Summer Zoo Camp, for ages 8 to 10, is everything your kids love about the Zoo – after the park closes! Dinner, breakfast, lunch and a Summer Zoo Camp t-shirt are included.
