About this Course

RecycleSmart, the Solid Waste Authority for the City of Walnut Creek is thrilled to partner with our camp program to help create the next generation of eco leaders! Campers will get their hands dirty investigating composting worms, soil, and the plants we grow and eat, to nurture building sustainable, healthy habits. *Thursday Trip: Academy of Science Summer is a time of endless possibilities—and Walnut Creek Day Camp is where those possibilities turn into unforgettable memories! With a dynamic mix of crafts, games, swimming, field trips, and exciting weekly themes, campers are encouraged to be energetic, creative, and most importantly, themselves.
