Animal Camp Turns 20 in 2026!
Animal Camp is a unique farm day camp experience for kids ages 5-13. Since 2006 we have hosted an interactive, self-directed but well supervised, technology free, experience for the children of our community. Kids enjoy and learn about the farm animals: horses, goats, bunnies, chickens, cows, dogs, and cats. Campers may participate in horseback riding lessons every morning (weather permitting), and spend afternoons playing games, crafting, and cooling off in the Chagrin River, which is both shallow & located on the property. We feature “Feed-em-Friday” when kids are permitted to bring carrots to feed the animals. All activities are supervised by experienced counselors; many of whom are Animal Camp graduates!
Typical camper to counselor ratio is 4:1. Horseback riding helmets are available to borrow. Sneakers or boots, water bottle, and lunch are required. We offer individual (Mon-Fri) sessions from 9-4:00 with pick up by 4:30. Campers are welcome to participate in one or multiple sessions. Animal Camp has a limit of approximately 30 campers per week. Please email Krista with for questions, registration info, or requests or to schedule a tour.
