Course Description
Jr. Veterinary Medicine
Ages: 6-8
Cost: $420 per week (M-F 9:00a-4:00p)
Emergency Vet is a camper favorite, and we’ve been receiving requests for years to create a “Vet Camp” for our younger campers. Because of those requests, Jr. Vet Med was born!
Campers will begin learning about what a vet is and what they do. They will learn the basic anatomy of and care for both cats and dogs, as well as more advanced care like stitches and broken bones. They’ll also spend time learning about the different body systems, including the circulatory, respiratory, and skeleton systems, by creating and making models of these important systems. Campers could potentially even have a visit from a real dog** where they will get to practice what they have been learning! Throughout the week, your aspiring veterinarian will do 20 different and engaging hands-on activity and projects! At the end of the week, all campers will bring home their Future Veterinarian Kit and first aid supply kit.
**Each week, we invite a local Veterinarian, Vet Tech, and/or Pet Groomer to be a guest speaker for our campers. However, these professionals are very busy, and alternate activities are planned in case they cannot get away from their office.
