Coastal Maine Botanical Gardens (CMBG) has decided to bring back its innovative Summer Camp Club for a second season. In a year when many in-person summer camps are still on hiatus, the self-guided program maintains the spirit of independence and nature-discovery CMBG summer camps are known for. “It was such a success last year,” says Erika Huber, Youth & Family Program Manager, “that we wanted to offer it again, give kids another safe and memorable summer at the Gardens.”
Participating campers receive four or eight full weeks of self-guided summer camp experiences, taking place both at the Gardens and at home. In session one, “Animal Kingdom,” those experiences explore the relationships between the flora and fauna of Maine. Session two, “Minibeasts,” covers insects and other invertebrates.
