Join us for an evening of outdoor fun at our Eco Explorers Mini Camp for Junior Rangers ages 4-10. Campers will explore ecology with hands-on activites, crafts, and games that bring this science to life.
This three-hour camp is the perfect way to make new friends and enjoy the great outdoors. Junior rangers should come in clothes that are ready to get messy in, and bug spray should be applied by the parent/guardian before arrival.
Drop off is at 6:00 pm and pick up at 9:00pm at the Visitor Center. Pre-registration is required and space is limited.
Program Fee: $35

ABOUT FORT MCALLISTER:
Located south of Savannah on the Ogeechee River, Fort McAllister showcases the best-preserved earthwork fortification of the Confederacy. The earthworks were attacked seven times by Union ironclads but did not fall until 1864 -- ending Gen. William T. Sherman’s “March to the Sea.” Visitors can explore the grounds with cannons, a furnace, bombproof, barracks, palisades, and more, while a Civil War museum contains artifacts, a video, and gift shop.
Nestled among giant live oaks, Spanish moss, and salt marsh, this park is a beautiful location for camping, fishing, boating, and picnicking. Seven cabins sit on stilts near the marsh, surrounded by palm trees and palmettos. The shaded campground is bordered by tidal Redbird Creek, a boat ramp, fishing dock, and nature trail. A large picnic area offers river views and playgrounds, while another boat ramp provides access to the Ogeechee River.
