Camp Pawprint

media release: DCHS will be hosting camps during school days off to keep your child learning while they are not in school. All Day Camps will include a tour of the shelter, interactions with DCHS education animals, a service project for DCHS, a craft project, and either an educational lesson or a visit from a guest speaker. Since we'll have different projects and speakers, each Day Camp will be a little different!

In addition to our one-day camps, we also offer a week-long Spring Break Camp. Spring Break camp is a week-long day camp held Monday through Friday. Campers will enjoy animal interactions, animal-related lessons, learn from local animal experts, complete service projects for the shelter, and play games with a small group of fellow animal lovers!

Camp Pawprint is recommended for children ages 7-12. Please review the Camp Pawprint Policies And Waiver before registering your child.
