UEC Summer camps are held at all 3 of our center locations and include immersive, hands-on outdoor explorations in our own backyard! Note: Summer Camp requires advance registration and has limited spaces available.
Summer Camp Gift holders will receive priority early-bird registration. Gift recipients may register for any available week-long camps through June 1st. The Summer Camp gift is valid for one single-week summer camp offering, up to a $340 value. This promotion ends January 5, 2022.
