Registration Begins for Summer Camps

Register February 4 - members, February 25 - non-members
Living History Farms is located on 500 acres of rolling prairie filled with bubbling streams and nature paths begging to be explored. Our outdoor day camp setting provides a fun & unique way for children entering kindergarten through 12th grade to experience day-to-day farm and town life as it was in the past.
Campers will fill their days with outdoor, hands-on activities, games, crafts and visits to Living History Farms' historic sites. They will be given the opportunity to compare life in the past to how we live today. The fun and learning never stops at Living History Farms Summer Day Camp!
New Camps this year!
Our Steampunk camp will be offered three times this summer for kids entering 6th-8th grade, and our Junior Vet Camp will be offered on Thursday, July 2 for kids entering 9th-12th grade.
Living History Farms Day Camp program is accredited by the American Camp Association, the only nationwide organization that accredits all types of organized camps.
