School Break Camp

Keep kids engaged and learning on days when school is off. SPREE S​chool Break Camps are a great way to spend days having fun while learning about our local ecosystems outdoors. School Break Camps take place at Johnson Habitat Park, and is perfect for families who want to try out our program before attending summer camp.

Camp Structure

SPREE Camps are educational, outdoor, and active programs. Education will be hands-on and engaging, but will require listening, respect, and cooperation by campers. Structured lessons will be broken up by snacks, free-time, quiet time, and other activities. It may be helpful to discuss the educational component with your child if they attend camp to ensure this program is a good fit.

While we do have indoor facilities, we are outdoors in all sorts of weather at SPREE camps. Please dress for the changing Colorado climate. We will adjust location or structure of activities, if needed. 

Camp runs Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm.
Please note 3:30 – 5:00 pm requires an additional after care fee.

SPREE staff and School Break Campers look into a critter in a box that they found along the South Platte River.

When I dropped my daughter off at SPREE this morning, she ran as fast as she could to SPREE HQ out in front of me. I have never seen her act this way about school or a special camp before. She LOVES SPREE Camp, thank you for this opportunity.

SPREE is hands down (my child’s) favorite camp EVER and she has dedicated a spot in her room specifically to "SPREE Memories."
