(PLEASE NOTE:
All sessions of Camp SPCA for 2010 are now full; Registration for Camp SPCA in 2011 will begin in March, 2011)


Welcome to Camp SPCA!
The SPCA of Tompkins County is proud to offer week-long camp sessions during the summer months for children ages 9-12.  Kids will spend a wonderful week learning about animals, their care, and the importance of the human-animal bond.

Our campers will learn about interacting with our animal friends and have the chance to participate in many enjoyable activities and crafts.  There will be speakers such as a dog behaviorist, our shelter veterinarian and an Animal Control Officer as well as others on many interesting topics.  We will learn about the important services the SPCA provides to the animals and people of our community and have the opportunity to help some individual animals find their forever homes.

The camp hours are 9:00 am to 3:00 pm, Monday through Friday, and 2010 sessions are currently scheduled for the following weeks:

7/5/10-7/9/10
7/12/10-7/16/10
7/19/10-7/23/10

8/2/10-8/6/10
8/9/10-8/13/10
8/16/10-8/20/10

Space is limited, so early enrollment is suggested.  Registration forms will be available beginning March 1, 2010.

Stories


Miko and Doc 
 

"Doc and Miko play and romp together continuously. Doc likes to antagonize Miko (half Lab & half Dachshund) she trys to let him have it but he can jump 3 feet in the air straight up which amazes us both. That doesn't stop Miko from trying a little bit.  Sometimes, he lands on me and now he weighs about 55 lbs. It gets my attention. He loves to swim and is very smart in picking up commands. He responds to sign language now and that is priceless in keeping him safe from a long distance. We all say thank you for your help in bringing our family together."
