Jr. Vet Med Camp

This summer camp, Jr. Vet Med, is designed especially for kids entering 1st to 3rd grade who are interested in becoming veterinarians. The camp provides a rich, interactive learning environment where children explore veterinary medicine by studying the anatomy of cats and dogs and learning about treatment for common injuries. Participants delve into understanding key body systems by creating models and engaging in hands-on projects that total 20 activities throughout the week. Campers also experience a special visit from a live dog to practice caregiving skills. The program culminates with each child receiving a Future Veterinarian Kit and a first aid kit. The course includes a dissection activity to help deepen understanding, and there is an emphasis on connecting campers with local veterinary professionals when possible. Sessions are held Monday through Friday from morning until late afternoon, with options for early drop-off and late pick-up times.
