Enrollment is limited to just 10 kids per session, so we ask that you notify us at least 48 hours in advance of each session if your child will not be attending.
In the event of a cancellation, you may elect to enroll in another session date and your payment will transfer, or receive a refund minus 20% for processing.
Cancellations without notice or within 48 hours of a session will not receive a refund, nor will be eligible to have their payment transfer to a different date.

How quickly does this camp fill?
Bio-Kids runs every week during the summer, and is popular with local Homer families. To be notified when registration is open, please sign up for our email list. If you are not able to secure a spot, please contact us to inquire about our waitlist.
Will campers be outside if it's raining?
Yes! Even in the rain, campers are able to explore and experience the incredible ecosystem of the Wynn Nature Center. Please make sure your child comes to camp with appropriate rain gear. As the old saying goes: there's no such thing as bad weather, just ill-suited clothing!
Do I need to pack my child a lunch?
This program is only two hours long. We encourage campers to bring their own snacks if they get hungry. If your camper has any food allergies or dietary restrictions, please let our staff know during registration.
