    Overview

    The MSPCA at Nevins Farm Children's Summer Camp teaches lifetime lessons of compassion, responsibility, and respect not only toward animals but toward all life and the environment as a whole. Our day camp is hosted for eight weeks during the summer, offered in one-week sessions. Teens ages 15 & up can join us as Junior Counselors, mentoring our campers and gaining leadership skills.

    All campers work alongside the barn and adoption center staff, participating in the care of our animals; activities include mucking horse stalls, cleaning rabbit cages, feeding cats, walking dogs and socializing (petting and playing with!) the many creatures at the MSPCA at Nevins Farm. In addition to the experience providing care to a variety of animals on site, campers also learn about important animal welfare topics in daily discussions, and meet a variety of animal care professionals who participate as guest speakers. And just like any fun summer camp experience, our campers make crafts, sing songs, and play games!
