Sharing from our friends Diverse Nature Collective TRACKS Youth Program

Join TRACKS and Diverse Nature Collective for a Black Youth in STEM Camp — where science, nature, and creativity come alive! Register on our website or at the link in our bio!

🍂🐛🔍

This P.A. Day Camp is designed as an affinity space for Black youth, where campers can connect with each other while exploring STEM and the outdoors. Affinity spaces like this are important because they offer young people a chance to learn, play, and build community in an environment that centers their identities and lived experiences. While this camp prioritizes registration for Black youth, TRACKS will also be offering other P.A. Day camps throughout the year that are open to all youth.

CAMP DETAILS:
When: October 24th, 2025. Camps are from 8:30am - 3:30pm.
*We will offer 30 minutes of additional care before camp (8:00-8:30am) and after camp (3:30pm-4:00pm) as requested.

Where: Camp Kawartha Environment Centre, Trent University, and nearby nature areas.

Who: ​Black youth ages 6-12

Price: 100% Free!
