Jamestown, N.Y. – With no school on Wednesday, November 11, in recognition of Veterans Day, it is a perfect time for kids to be outdoors getting some fresh air and exercise.
That is why Audubon Community Nature Center (ACNC) is offering a special November Camp from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. that day.
Your 4 to 12 year olds can join nature educators and friends for a school holiday and come to Audubon for exploration, fun, and learning.
The children can enjoy a day of camp as the seasons shift from autumn to winter. They can explore habitats, play outside, investigate what happens as winter starts to take hold, and visit with their friends.
Much of the day is spent outdoors, so children need to dress for the weather and bring two sets of extra clothes, including socks, shoes, and mittens/gloves. They also need a snack, lunch, a water bottle, and a face covering.
Cost for the camp is $40 for ages 4-12 or $30 for Nature Center member children. Additional siblings receive a $5 discount.
Enrollment is limited. Paid reservations are required by Monday, November 9. For more information and to register, call (716) 569-2345 during business hours or click on “Register for Upcoming Programs” at AudubonCNC.org.
Audubon’s COVID-19 safety precautions require face coverings for all visitors ages 3 and up for indoor programs. Face coverings are also required outdoors when visitors cannot maintain six feet of distance between family groups.
ACNC is located at 1600 Riverside Road, one-quarter mile east of Route 62 between Jamestown, N.Y., and Warren, Pa. The first floor of the Nature Center building, including the Blue Heron Gift Shop, live animals, and the 2020 Nature Photography Contest winning photographs, is open Mondays through Saturdays, 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Because not all of the building is accessible, admission is by donation only.
You are welcome to visit the 600-acre nature preserve from dawn to dusk daily. While practicing safe social distancing measures, you can enjoy the grounds and six miles of trails, and view Liberty, Audubon’s non-releasable Bald Eagle.

Audubon Community Nature Center builds and nurtures connections between people and nature by providing positive outdoor experiences, opportunities to learn about and understand the natural world, and knowledge to act in environmentally responsible ways.
