The Clarke University Softball Team is hosting 2 Winter Camps! Prospect Camp: January 31st, 2026 Youth Camp: February 1st, 2026

What’s slimy, warty and jumpy? Frogs of course! Hop on down to the River Museum to become a frog expert. We’ll explore the stages of metamorphosis, conduct our own “frog chorus,” meet some live toads and learn all about the Wyoming Toads. You’ll toad-ally be in love with frogs after this camp!

From crafting wooden boats to building picture frames, campers will use real tools and materials to bring their own creations to life. We’ll also go behind the scenes with the our exhibit team for an exclusive tour of their workshop and we'll learn how they bring exhibits from blueprint to reality.

What’s for lunch in the animal kingdom? At this camp, we’ll sink our teeth into the world of herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores! Campers will explore how different animals eat, hunt, graze, and survive—whether they’re munching on plants, chasing prey, or enjoying a little of both.

Join us as we flap into the world of our feathered friends! We’ll discover what birds eat by taking a close look at their beaks and feet, then lend them a helping wing by making bird feeders and building cozy birdhouses. It’s a hands-on adventure that’s sure to make your spirits soar!

Join us as we explore the mysterious world beneath the waves—one of the least explored places on Earth. We’ll search for strange and fascinating creatures like cuttlefish, frilled sharks, anglerfish, and even the elusive giant squid. The deep sea is calling—are you ready to dive in?
