Summer Camp at Schlitz Audubon

Whether you are a returning family who views camps at Schlitz Audubon as an annual tradition, or a new family who is interested in exploring what we offer, we want our camps to be a highlight of your child’s summer. Each year we offer camps on popular themes including ponding, reptiles, and nature art, while also adding new camps focused on nature quests, popular games, and birding.  

2026 Registration  

In our effort to offer a stress-free and equitable process that will take into consideration the unique circumstances of each camp family, our 2026 registration will begin with a members-only lottery, as we have done in the past few years. 

The camp calendar will be published online on Friday, January 9. To register, members must fill out one Family Profile and one Camp Registration form (available January 9) for their family. With our software system, Jovial, you only need to fill out one Family Profile for all of your kids. You can fill out the Family Profile any time between now and the registration period. We recommend doing it as early as possible to avoid issues and to make your registration day easier. Note that you will need to verify your email address after submitting the form, so please ensure you do that to avoid issues during registration. 

Your Family Profile will provide us with all of your children’s info and your contact information. Your Camp Registration form will provide our staff with camp selections for each child. The lottery will first consider all lottery participants’ first preference, then second preference, then third preference, etc. All registration forms submitted prior to 11:59pm on Sunday, January 25, will be entered into the lottery. 

Families entered into the lottery will receive camp confirmations and/or waitlist notifications by the end of day on Friday, February 20. Invoices will be sent prior to March 6 and can be paid online.  

After 12:00am on January 26, after we have received all members’ forms to be entered into the lottery, camp registration will be closed until noon on Friday, March 6. At noon, the camp calendar will reflect which camps still have open spots, which have waitlist availability, and which camps are sold out. From March 6 and beyond, registration forms and waitlist requests will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis in the order they are received. 

To get a glimpse of the kinds of summer camps Schlitz Audubon offers, you can download a pdf list of the 2025 camp schedule.
