Spring Family Campout

April 19th-20th
6pm – 9am

Spring is here and this year’s Family Campout is just around the corner! Pack your tent, sleeping bags, and adventurous attitudes and head on over to the Arboretum for an evening of games, crafts, animal presentations, a home-cooked meal, and guided night hike. Pitch a tent in the forest and enjoy a relaxing night under the stars.

Whether you are an avid camper or looking to try something new, we invite you to join! Begin the night by finding your campsite and pitching your tent. Then enjoy a hearty home-cooked meal followed by games and crafts, but don’t forget to leave room for s’mores! End the night by learning about some of our NJ native wildlife and join one of our environmental educators on an Owl Prowl, a guided night hike where we will look for signs of owls in our forest.

When registering, you have the opportunity to mention any allergies or dietary restrictions. We will do our best to accommodate, but cannot promise that we will meet every individuals needs. If you have questions or concerns regarding food at this event, please contact swilson@hartshornarboretum.org.
