Registration for these popular camps begins on Thursday, Feb. 18 and will continue through the next few weeks. County Executive George Latimer said: “This will be the second summer we are opening our day camps with Covid-19 protocols in place. Although they will operate differently than they normally would, we are glad we can offer our children an in-person experience during a time of great uncertainty.” Camps start on Monday, July 5 and run through Friday, Aug. 26. Commissioner of the Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation Kathy O’Connor said: “We are proud to be opening our camps for another great summer. They introduce our youngest visitors to the world around them and provide outstanding hands-on learning experiences.” Nature Camps are available for children entering pre-k through eighth grade and will focus on different aspects of nature including animals, insects and plants. They will take place at the following nature centers: Cranberry Lake Preserve, North White Plains Edith G.
