## About

Grades K-5 spend a camp day on animal encounters, games, crafts, and experiments. The page also lists November 23, 24, and 25; those Thanksgiving-week days are already covered by the catalog's School's Out Camp, so they are not repeated here. Spring-break dates on the same page are outside this window.
