Give your children the opportunity to connect with animals and become advocates for animal welfare this summer at the Fred SPCA Compassionate Care Camp! Designed for ages 6-13, our camp introduces kids to animal care, career fields, and the work we do at the Fredericksburg SPCA. From learning about dogs and cats to exploring foster and adoption practices, there’s something for every young animal lover. All camp proceeds support our life-saving mission.

Week-long sessions run Monday-Friday with half-day (9 AM-12 PM) or full-day (9 AM-4 PM) options, discounted rates and financial assistance may be available.
Spring Break Camp (March 24-28) and Summer Camp (June-August) feature specialized weeks, including Sensory Friendly Week tailored for campers who thrive in quieter, soothing environments. Learn more and register today to make a difference for animals and your child’s summer experience!

Students gain technical expertise in building and understanding advanced technologies, laying a foundation for future careers in STEM, cybersecurity, and engineering. The camps also emphasize teamwork, communication, and digital literacy, promoting cyber awareness and responsible technology use.

Each camp offers week-long, immersive experiences aimed at teaching kids technical skills, creativity, and problem-solving, running Monday through Friday, through the months of June to August. The Cyber Titans summer program includes camps such as Build Your Own Gaming PC and Build and Your Own 3D Printer.
