  Four Mounds Adventure
        Day Camp
A weeklong adventure takes place in four great locations across Dubuque. Activities
include: the Four Mounds Challenge Ropes Course, canoeing at Mines of Spain on
Catfish Creek, ecosystem adventures at Swiss Valley Nature Center and EB Lyons
Interpretive Center, as well as swimming, creek-stomping, hiking, team building, games
and arts & crafts.

About the Camp: Camp runs Monday through Friday, from about 9 a.m. – 4 p.m., but we
provide optional before-care and after-care extending our hours from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Children are required to bring a sack lunch; all other supplies and safety equipment are
provided by the camp, including life vests. Convenient pick-up and drop-off locations are
at Prescott School and Allison-Henderson Park. We maintain a high staff to camper ratio
of at least 1:5.

Cost: Free to income-qualifying families that are residents of
Dubuque, or $145/camper per week. Children may register for
one week only.

Qualifications: Children need no special skills to participate.
Trained staff assist with proper equipment during canoeing and
ropes course adventures. Life jackets are required when near the
water (provided by the camp). Children participate at their
own comfort level.
