The first session of the Reef Ranger Summer Camp is open to rising 9th and 10thgraders. During this week of leadership training, participants gain a greater awareness of the importance of conservation for our community. They will earn CPR/AED & First Aid certificates, promote water safety, and serve as role models to younger campers during the second or third week session. The second and third Reef Ranger Summer Camp sessions are open to rising 5th and 6th graders. Campers will engage in an exciting array of hands-on activities geared towards understanding the benefits of our coral reefs. Daily fun-filled experiences such as puzzles, games, snorkeling, experiments, and field trips will encourage campers to make connections between their everyday actions and impacts on the environment.
