Earth Explorers Camp at Sonoma Garden Park

Ages 6-11, City of Sonoma: We invite you to a week full of discovery, creativity, and PLAY as an Earth Explorer this summer! Against the backdrop of Sonoma Garden Park—equipped with a nature-based playground, multiple child-friendly gardens, and shaded rest areas—campers are given a safe space to explore, learn, build, and create to the beat of their own drum. At Earth Explorers Camp, we believe play is the best way to learn about our environment, so we will have plenty of time to play games, make art, do STEAM experiments, and tell stories—enjoying special moments of team-building along the way that will nurture both new and old friendships.
