⛺ Building awesome survival shelters using nothing but tarps and teamwork.

🥾 Conquering the wild trails and trekking across cool, rocky terrain.

🐛 Bugtopia is officially wrapped up! 🪵🐞

What an absolute blast we had at The Science Zone this week! Our final two days were packed to the brim with buggy adventures—including learning how to tell the difference between a dragonfly and a damselfly! (Ask your campers, they're experts now! 🐉🪰)

📸 Check out the photos below to see some of our favorite moments and the awesome discoveries our campers made!

🎒 Parents & Guardians: With a whole colony of busy campers comes a lot of left-behind gear. Our lost and found pile is looking pretty impressive!

🌟 This Day on July 15, 2026 🌟

The Science Zone and Mercer Family Resource Center are joining forces to celebrate what makes our community strong—our families.

We know that family time is powerful. It’s where curiosity is sparked, confidence is built, and meaningful connections are formed. When families learn, play, and explore together, they are already building the foundation for lifelong growth and resilience.

Through this partnership, we’re celebrating those everyday strengths by creating opportunities for families to connect, discover, and grow side by side. From hands-on learning to supportive resources, this collaboration reflects what we see every day in our community: families already have so much to build on, and together we can help those moments grow even stronger.

Your support on WyoGives helps make these shared experiences possible—strengthening connections, expanding access to enriching opportunities, and investing in the natural strengths of families across Natrona County.

Because when families thrive together, our whole community thrives. 💙

🐛🐞 BUG CAMP IN FULL SWING! 🐞🐛

Today was an absolute blast for our campers as we dived headfirst into all things creepy, crawly, and completely fascinating !

One of our missions today was exploring multiple incredible bug displays. Campers got to see the insect world in a whole new way, discovering just how awesome (and important!) these little creatures really are.

To top off an already perfect day, the group got a special visit from a crowd favorite our very own bearded dragon, Ozzie! 🦎✨ He loved meeting all the brave bug-experts-in-training and showing off his cool reptile style.

It was a day full of big smiles, amazing discoveries, and so much fun!
