Have an animal-loving kiddo in your family? Don’t miss sending them to our Unleashed Camps during school vacation weeks and summer break!

Both educational and fun, camp programming is designed to teach children age-appropriate animal welfare topics and curriculum. Daily activities include hands-on interactions with shelter animals, educational games, arts and crafts projects, guest speakers, and more. Camps are held in our humane education classroom at our adoption and community center.

SUMMER CAMP

Below you will find important information regarding the age/week breakdowns, field trips/guest speakers and a link to attend our ZOOM Parent Orientations, prior to registration opening.  READ ON…

SAVE THE DATE!

Registration for Summer Camp 2025, will open on Tuesday, March 4th at 7pm.

• When registration is open, a survey monkey link will be posted on this webpage. If you already have the webpage open, or have clicked on the link prior to launch time, you will need to refresh the page.
• Parents/guardians will fill out the survey and let us know their first, second, third, and fourth camp choices. Not all grade levels will have 4 options available.
  • PLEASE NOTE: Filling out the survey does NOT guarantee placement in a camp week.
• At the end of the survey you will see a green DONE button and it will say “Thank you for taking this survey” this insures you have successfully submitted your survey to us. Please only fill out the survey once. Filling it out multiple times does not increase your chances of placement, but instead can be confusing when processing the submissions.
• The ARLGP will contact each parent/guardian in the order in which the surveys were submitted within 48-72 hours.
• We will try as hard as possible to place you in your first-choice week. However, there are only 15 spots per session. To help as many campers as possible attend, we will only enroll a child in one camp week.
• We are unable to make special accommodations regarding camp week placement with friends, in order to maintain the process of first come, first served.
• If we were able to successfully place your camper in the desired week, you will receive an email with information and a link to pay by Friday, March 7th or before. Please add the ARLGP to your safe sender list to ensure that you receive any emails from our education@arlgp.org email. Don’t forget to check your junk email just in case.
  • PLEASE NOTE: This registration process was created to fairly offer as many campers as possible the chance to attend our camp while keeping a first-come/first-enrolled process. This process takes our team a couple of days to work through submissions and placement, so we kindly ask for your patience in our reply to you after you submit your survey.
