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. This year, we’re continuing to offer camps on popular themes including ponding, reptiles, and nature art, while also adding new camps focused on nature quests, popular games and birding.
2025 Registration
Our member lottery has ended – thank you to all of the families that participated! Families entered into the lottery will receive camp confirmations and/or waitlist notifications by the end of day on Friday, February 21. Invoices will be sent prior to March 7 and will be payable online.
Registration will re-open on March 12
Camp registration is now closed until noon on Wednesday, March 12, while we process all lottery entries. On that day, the Camp Calendar will reflect which camps still have available spots, and which camps are sold out. From March 12 and beyond, registration forms and waitlist additions will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis in the order they are received.
To register, members will fill out one Family Profile form and one Camp Registration form for their family. Your Camp Registration form will provide our staff with camp selections for each child. For families with multiple children, there is an option to specify that all children must be enrolled in camps during the same week and time slot. While the registration form is not available while registration is closed, you are still able to fill out a Family Profile in the meantime so you will be ready to enroll once the open registration period begins.
You can view our 2025 camp offerings on our online Camp Calendar, or download a pdf list of the 2025 Summer Camps.

Important Camp Notes
An automated email reply will be sent after submitting each Family Profile and Registration Form. Any members taking part in the lottery will receive camp confirmations and/or waitlist notifications by late February. Emailed invoices will be sent by early March.
For Camp Registration forms that are submitted after the lottery is completed, camp confirmations or waitlist notifications, as well as emailed invoices, will be sent as they are processed.
Throughout the lottery process, if a camp is at capacity your child may be placed on a waitlist. Waitlists will be capped at 20. When our camps re-open post lottery, families will be able to sign up for camp waitlists through the camp calendar if a camp is full and the waitlist has not reached 20 campers.
If an opening becomes available for a wait-listed child, families will be contacted via email.
Waitlists will be honored through April 30, 2025. After this time, camp openings will be available on the website and can be registered for on a first-come, first-served basis.
We allow a maximum of 6 camps for the entire summer, per camper. Campers are not allowed to enroll in the same camp twice if it is offered in both the morning and afternoon.
To cancel or change camps, please email our registrar.
A refund of registration fees, minus a $25.00 fee per camp, will be given for any camps canceled 14-days or more prior to the first date of camp. There will be no refunds for camps canceled with less than 14-days’ notice. The cancellation policy is not dependent on the status of camp waitlists.
If Schlitz Audubon cancels camps for any reason, we will offer affected camp families a pro-rated refund.
Lunch supervision will not be available for the Summer Camp 2025 season. If a camper is enrolled in both a morning and afternoon camp session within the same week, they must be picked up in between camp sessions.
If your camper may require medication while at camp, please complete an Authorization to Administer Medication Form prior to your child’s first day of camp.
We ask that you do not send your child to camp if they have shown symptoms of contagious illnesses including but not limited to, cold and cough, pink eye, COVID, lice, chickenpox, strep throat, stomach and intestinal illness, etc. in the past 24 hours. If you are unsure if you should bring your child into camp, please call a summer camp staff member to consult before the camp begins.
Per our Cancellation Policy, we are not able to offer refunds for camps canceled or days missed for illness with less than 14-days’ notice.
