Summer Adventure Camps (Grades K - 5)


Trinity River Audubon Center

Spending time outdoors fosters happier and healthier children. At Trinity River Audubon Center Summer Adventure Camps, we explore and immerse ourselves in the great outdoors, creating memories that last a lifetime. Each day of camp is a new adventure for the students, from rafting on our ponds to exploring the world around them. Students immerse themselves in the great outdoors as they splash, play, and discover.

Camps are nestled in the wild and beautiful Great Trinity Forest at Trinity River Audubon Center, located just minutes from downtown Dallas.
