Youth Programs
Winter Camp
We have TWO Winter Camps this year! ☃️ December 23rd, 26th, and 27th, spread the holiday cheer to our shelter animals! We will have crafts, games, guest speakers, and (of course) social time with our animals!
On December 30th, January 2nd, and 3rd, we will be making cookies for the dogs and toys for the cats and helping all the animals make their New Year's resolutions!
These Camps run from 9am to 4pm daily and each cost only $50 per day! If you would like to sign up for all six days of camps, registration will only cost $250! To join the fun winter festivities, register using the link below!
