Campers will visit Sandia Crest and the NM Museum of Natural History and Science. This session is limited to 13 participants and is taught by two instructors.
Aftercare will be available from 4:00 - 5:00 p.m. for an additional fee of $50 per week or $10 per day. Aftercare payment must be paid by cash or check on the first day of camp at 8:00 a.m. Aftercare will be held at the Museum.
