Starting Monday, July 28, our Durham summer camps will take place in Duke Forest thanks to an exciting new partnership with Duke University! We’re so grateful to their team for rallying the support and resources to make this possible—and we can’t wait to explore this beautiful new space with our campers.
This change comes as we’ve received official word from the Durham Department of Parks and Recreation that West Point on the Eno City Park will remain closed for the rest of the summer as they continue assessing flood damage and planning for a safe reopening.
If you were registered for a camp at West Point, you should have received an email with more details and transfer options. We’ve already been able to offer many families alternative camp placements, and we’re doing our best to accommodate as many campers as possible.
If you’re trying to register for a camp and it’s showing a closed registration, please reach out—we may still have space available! schoolhouse@schoolhouseofwonder.org
Our sincere thanks to Triangle Land Conservancy for their ongoing support, and to Durham Parks and Recreation, a long-time partner we’ll continue cheering on as they rebuild.
It’s been a summer of unexpected turns, but we’re staying true to what matters most: nature, community, and a whole lot of wonder.
