AWIARE is planning an exciting new archaeology summer camp at Weedon Island Preserve designed for children 7-11 years old who are interested in exploring the past. The camp is conducted by professional archaeologists and allow kids to experience archaeology first-hand through activities, experiments, hikes, and an excavation.
The summer camp is designed for children with an interest in prehistory and history as well as learning how early people interacted with their environment. Campers learn about the importance of archaeology and gain an understanding about early natural resources that were necessary for life in the Tampa Bay region. Highlights of the camp include guest experts, tour of an archaeological site, hands-on archaeology, lab analysis, pottery making, atlatl adventure, and earning the certificate of Tommy the Tortoise, Junior Archaeologist.
We hope you will consider joining us this summer!
