Missouri Summer Camp for Kids & Teens

Why Families Choose Cub Creek Science Camp

Looking for a summer camp in Missouri where your child can do more than the typical camp activities? Cub Creek Science Camp is an overnight summer camp for kids and teens ages 7–17, located on Bear River Ranch near Rolla, Missouri. Campers spend their summer making friends, building independence, trying new things, and exploring the interests they already love.

What makes Cub Creek different is the variety. A camper can learn veterinary skills, spend time with lemurs or sloths, shoot archery, make pottery, explore science, tackle the ropes course, go swimming, or head out on an adventure—all during the same stay at camp.

Families choose Cub Creek from across Missouri, throughout the United States, and around the world. Whether your child loves animals, science, adventure, nature, arts and crafts, or simply wants an unforgettable sleepaway camp experience, Cub Creek gives them the freedom to build a summer around the things that interest them most.
