Fossil Rim Wildlife Center’s overnight and day camps are designed to provide an opportunity to learn about our conservation efforts. Because a major part of the camp
experience will involve interacting with all aspects of nature, including animals, we ask that campers behave in a responsible and cooperative manner at all times. We
are confident that each participant will have an educational and fulfilling experience; however, those who find it difficult to be kind and respectful will be asked to sit out,
and if necessary, removed from camp. No refund will be provided if a participant is removed from camp due to inappropriate behavior.
