Entomology Youth Programs

Entomology (Bug) Camp 2013! – now accepting registrations.

  • During our summer camp, campers become certified junior entomologists, learning more than they imagined they could about entomology and insects.  Even kids who aren’t fans of insects end up having a great time.  We will perform experiments using insects, do activities related to insects, and make an insect collection.
  • Camp fees include snacks, a collection bag, and an awesome collection kit (better than what you get in college).  Collection kits includes: insect pins, vials, aspirator, forceps, killing solution, killing jars, net, collection booklet, labels, non-running pen, magnifying glass, spreading board, pinning block, and collection box.
  • We fill up fast, please don’t wait until the deadline – to make sure we are still accepting campers, contact Molly at 210-467-6575 or mekeck@ag.tamu.edu.
