Become part of Hawaii’s conservation story

The Lyon Arboretum Education Department would like to invite your children to join us for a week of learning, exploring, and creating in the Mānoa rainforest!

For our Fall program, our theme is “Rainforest Adventures” and will feature outdoor explorations, science investigations, and behind-the-scenes tours at Lyon. Camp participants will do activities including, but not limited to, informal science, hiking the grounds, nature-based arts & crafts projects, cooking, field biological surveys, and kokua within our Children’s Garden. The week takes full advantage of Lyon’s vast plant collection, conservation efforts, and other features that are unique only to Lyon Arboretum.

When: October 8th-12th, 2018 (Monday-Friday) from 8:30am*—2:30pm. *Children may be dropped off no earlier than 8:00am each morning

Who: This year’s Fall camp is open to children in grades K-6, who are physically able to participate in outdoor activities for up to an hour at a time, and revel in participating in activities regardless of the elements (Sun? Rain? Mosquitoes? Mud? No problem!). Camp participants are expected to be able to take direction and follow guidance from the Lyon Education Staff and constructively and safely work together in large or small groups, with up to 19 other children of varying ages and backgrounds.

Cost: The camp cost is $250 for the week (Monday-Friday). No partial payments or discounts.
