Akron Fossils & Science Center offers 8 weeks of Day Camps, all highlighting a fun and exciting theme! AFSC Day Camps are geared toward school-aged children who love to learn and are ready to fight boredom with curiosity!
Our camps are available for half-day sessions or all-day sessions, and run Monday through Friday, 9am-5pm. Before Care and After Care are available for an additional fee.
Registration for each Camp session WILL CLOSE when the Camp reaches capacity or one week before its start date.
