Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Program - Without Mt. Washington Trip
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents. You can find more information and photos of trips at our website: newtonenvisci.org For more information, email: environmentalmgr@newtonma.govor by phone 617-796-1522

Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Program - Without Mt. Washington Trip
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents.

Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Program - Without Mt. Washington Trip
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents.

Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Program - Without Mt. Washington Trip
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents.

There will be no refund of your deposit. We do understand, however, that sometimes plans change, so you will have until March 15th to make any changes to the weeks you have registered for. If you cancel out of weeks but are still registered for another week at the same camp, the deposit that you have already paid will be applied to the remaining weeks of that camp and lower your balance due. If you cancel any weeks after March 15th the deposit will not be applied to the other weeks and you will lose it. Deposits are non-transferrable from camp to camp or child to child, so if you cancel out completely from one camp you cannot use that deposit towards another camp. Final balances are due by May 15th.

Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Program - Without Mt. Washington Trip
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents. You can find more information and photos of trips at our website: newtonenvisci.org For more information, email: environmentalmgr@newtonma.govor by phone 617-796-1522

Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Program - Without Mt. Washington Trip
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents.

There will be no refund of your deposit. We do understand, however, that sometimes plans change, so you will have until March 15th to make any changes to the weeks you have registered for. If you cancel out of weeks but are still registered for another week at the same camp, the deposit that you have already paid will be applied to the remaining weeks of that camp and lower your balance due. If you cancel any weeks after March 15th the deposit will not be applied to the other weeks and you will lose it. Deposits are non-transferrable from camp to camp or child to child, so if you cancel out completely from one camp you cannot use that deposit towards another camp. Final balances are due by May 15th. After May 15th, we will only be able to do a refund (minus the $30.00 non-refundable deposit) if we are able to fill the space. Please email the camp manager in charge of the program if you need to cancel.

Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Session
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents. You can find more information and photos of trips at our website: newtonenvisci.org For more information, email: environmentalmgr@newtonma.govor by phone 617-796-1522

Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Session
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents. You can find more information and photos of trips at our website: newtonenvisci.org For more information, email: environmentalmgr@newtonma.govor by phone 617-796-1522

If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp.

This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip.

Individual weeks are available for families that can't make the 2 week commitment. Outdoor Adventure is for kids going into 1st through 6th grade in the Fall of 2025. A $30.00 non refundable deposit per week is due at the time of registration.For added outdoor fun or to extend your day, check out the Specialty Camps at Nahanton Park that run 1:30 - 3:30 pm. Children signed up for both Outdoor Adventure and the Specialty Camps will be supervised from 1:00 - 1:30 by Outdoor Adventure staff and brought to the Specialty Camp at 1:30.Summer Camp Refund PolicyAll summer camp registrations include a $30.00 non-refundable deposit per week as part of their registration. There will be no refund of your deposit. We do understand, however, that sometimes plans change, so you will have until March 15th to make any changes to the weeks you have registered for. If you cancel out of weeks but are still registered for another week at the same camp, the deposit that you have already paid will be applied to the remaining weeks of that camp and lower your balance due. If you cancel any weeks after March 15th the deposit will not be applied to the other weeks and you will lose it. Deposits are non-transferrable from camp to camp or child to child, so if you cancel out completely from one camp you cannot use that deposit towards another camp. Final balances are due by May 15th. After May 15th, we will only be able to do a refund (minus the $30.00 non-refundable deposit) if we are able to fill the space. Please email the camp manager in charge of the program if you need to cancel.

Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Session
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents. You can find more information and photos of trips at our website: newtonenvisci.org For more information, email: environmentalmgr@newtonma.govor by phone 617-796-1522

Environmental Science Program of Newton - Full Session
Ages: 7 - 10th grade by September 2025Dates: Monday, June 30th to Friday, August 1, 2025Requirements: students should have sturdy, over-the-ankle boots, and be able to participate in hiking and vigorous outdoor activities. If choosing bicycle trips, a working bicycle and helmet are necessary. The Environmental Science Program is a unique month-long outdoor program that lets students enjoy the wilderness while learning about the science of the environment. The Program takes students who will be going into grades 7 - 10 in the Fall. Highlights of the program include walking trips, bicycle trips, T trips to science landmarks in Boston, a 12-mile canoeing adventure on the Charles River, an expedition through the salt marshes of the North shore near Gloucester, and hikes in Massachusetts and New Hampshire such as the Blue Hills Reservation and Mount Monadnock. The Program ends with an exhilarating three-day backpacking trip up Mount Washington, the highest peak in the northeast, which includes a two-night stay at the AMC Lake of the Clouds hut. If students do not have a frame-pack, the Program can provide one. Equipment and clothing lists will be available on the Program’s website. The Program centers around the idea that students learn best about their surroundings when taught by other students in the specific environment. To do this, leaders develop science workshops for each location to teach to students during daily trips. Topics include geology, botany, ecology, wildlife, the water cycle, pollution, forest succession, climate change, and conservation. Each year, the Program collaborates with an expert to participate in a hands-on environmental cleanup project. These have included trail improvements at Sawmill Brook Parkway, removing invasive species near Auburndale Cove, and an outdoor plant and tree cleanup at City Hall. Many students apply to become leaders when they reach the eligible age. Alums of the Environmental Science Program have gone on to study forestry and oceanography, teach science in Minnesota, and study evolutionary biology in a PhD program at Cornell. This year, the Program will start on Monday, June 30th and will end on Friday, August 1, 2025. The Program is based at Bowen Elementary School in Newton Centre. A typical day runs from 9:00am to 4:00pm but hours may vary depending on the daily trips. Families are notified in advance of any days on which times or locations differ.**New for This Year – 6th Grade Eligibility for Environmental Science Program** We’re excited to welcome campers entering 6th grade into our Environmental Science Program for the first time! This program introduces younger campers to the unique experiences and community spirit that make Environmental Science such a special part of our camp. Please Note: 6th grade campers will not participate in the Mt. Washington capstone trip. Instead, they will attend camp from June 30 – July 25, focusing on developing their hiking and outdoor skills. The goal is to prepare them for a successful transition into the full program—including the hiking trip—the following summer. This approach ensures a positive, age-appropriate experience for all campers, setting them up for success both now and in the years to come. Full tuition for the session will be $2,550 for Newton residents, $2,600 for non-residents. A non-refundable deposit of $250.00 is due at the time of registration. Scholarships are available for residents that qualify.A limited number of slots available for those interested in joinin the camp but are not ready for the Mt. Washington trip. Participants who register for this will be included in all camp activities except the final Mt. Washington overnight. Tuition for the session will be $2,000 for Newton residents, $2,050 for non-residents. You can find more information and photos of trips at our website: newtonenvisci.org For more information, email: environmentalmgr@newtonma.govor by phone 617-796-1522

There will be no refund of your deposit. We do understand, however, that sometimes plans change, so you will have until March 15th to make any changes to the weeks you have registered for. If you cancel out of weeks but are still registered for another week at the same camp, the deposit that you have already paid will be applied to the remaining weeks of that camp and lower your balance due. If you cancel any weeks after March 15th the deposit will not be applied to the other weeks and you will lose it. Deposits are non-transferrable from camp to camp or child to child, so if you cancel out completely from one camp you cannot use that deposit towards another camp. Final balances are due by May 15th.

If you cancel out of weeks but are still registered for another week at the same camp, the deposit that you have already paid will be applied to the remaining weeks of that camp and lower your balance due. If you cancel any weeks after March 15th the deposit will not be applied to the other weeks and you will lose it.

Individual weeks are available for families that can't make the 2 week commitment. Outdoor Adventure is for kids going into 1st through 6th grade in the Fall of 2025. A $30.00 non refundable deposit per week is due at the time of registration.For added outdoor fun or to extend your day, check out the Specialty Camps at Nahanton Park that run 1:30 - 3:30 pm.

There will be no refund of your deposit. We do understand, however, that sometimes plans change, so you will have until March 15th to make any changes to the weeks you have registered for. If you cancel out of weeks but are still registered for another week at the same camp, the deposit that you have already paid will be applied to the remaining weeks of that camp and lower your balance due. If you cancel any weeks after March 15th the deposit will not be applied to the other weeks and you will lose it. Deposits are non-transferrable from camp to camp or child to child, so if you cancel out completely from one camp you cannot use that deposit towards another camp. Final balances are due by May 15th.
