Looking for something fun for the kids to do on the June 25 Professional Development Day? Register your six to ten year old for an Environmental Daycamp offered by the North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority (NBMCA).

The Daycamps are designed for elementary school students and are based on the NBMCA’s successful March Break and Summer Environmental Daycamp programs. Camp runs from 8:30am-4:30pm. Space is limited, therefore it is recommended to register early.

“The NBMCA’s PD Day Daycamp provides a fun, safe and educational environment for children and will hopefully assist parents who may find it difficult to arrange child care on PD Days” explains Dale D’Allaire, Naturalist, North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority. “Campers participate in a variety of environmentally based indoor and outdoor activities including a pond study, crafts and many games.”

A pizza lunch is included in the $32.00 camp fee. The public is asked to contact Dale D’Allaire at the North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority at (705) 474-5420 for more information or to register.

The North Bay-Mattawa Conservation Authority (NBMCA) was founded in 1972 by the Province of Ontario and the NBMCA’s 10 member municipalities. A non-profit organization, the NBMCA works closely with the public to balance human needs with the environmental needs of the region’s watershed. The NBMCA is one of 36 Conservation Authorities who are members of Conservation Ontario.
