Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge Camp

The Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge has announced the dates for their children’s Camp CROW Summer Camp, a program dedicated to providing children with an exciting and educational wildlife experience. 

  • Taking place throughout the month of July, this camp promises to engage young minds in a range of interactive activities and foster a love for nature and wildlife conservation.

The Camp CROW Summer Camp offers a unique opportunity for children ages 8-10 from July 17th -21st and children ages 11-13 the week of July 24th-28th to explore the wonders of the natural world. This camp combines education, adventure, and fun to create an unforgettable summer wildlife experience.

Campers will have the chance to immerse themselves in nature and learn about the diverse wildlife species that call the Emerald Coast their home. Led by a team of experienced and passionate wildlife educators, the program will include a variety of hands-on activities, interactive animal ambassador presentations, and engaging workshops.

Throughout their camp day, campers will participate in exciting adventures such as arts & crafts, wildlife encounters, and exploration of the refuge’s habitats. They will also learn about animal behavior, conservation efforts, coexistence, environmental impact and the importance of protecting our environment. 

  • From observing birds in their natural habitats to discovering marine life of the coastal ecosystems, every day will bring a new adventure.

“We are thrilled to once again present our Camp Crow Summer Camp and provide children with an opportunity to connect with nature in a meaningful way,” said Pascal Robin, Executive Director of the Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge. “Our dedicated team of educators and staff are committed to delivering a fun-filled, educational experience that will ignite a passion for wildlife conservation in the hearts of our young participants.”

Campers will not only gain knowledge and appreciation for the natural world but will also develop important life skills. The program will foster teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving through group activities and interactive games. By engaging in hands-on experiences, children will build confidence, resilience, and a sense of environmental stewardship. 

Inspired by camp last year, each day of camp has a special theme to highlight specific ambassadors and functions of ECWR. The Children’s Camp Crow Summer Camp will run from July 17th to July 28th, with both full-week and single day options available to suit different schedules. 

  • Enrollment is now open, and interested parents and guardians are encouraged to register their children early due to limited availability.

For more information and to register for the Camp Crow Summer Camp, please visit or contact the Emerald Coast Wildlife Refuge at 850-684-1485 or director@emeraldcoastwildliferefuge.org.

“To get a clearer picture, what is the historical record of impact on the nesting sites? Is there evidence of birds being impacted by previous fireworks shows?”

“You people need to see the overall picture: birds are an important part of nature. Destin already lets trees be felled without any consequences…other than global warming.”
