Our Veterinary Medicine camp is designed to give students an opportunity to learn all about the world of animals and their care.  We combine classroom-based academics with hands-on lessons, labs and more.  We really get in there and go for it!   For future animal lovers, veterinarians… a lot of the basic biology we are learning applies across a host of academic disciplines later in life, and college majors.  Plus, learning on a college campus is just cool.  Like literally the most fun ever.
