2012 Zoo Summer Camp Registration Process
Campers will no longer have to be registered for a specific age group. This should aid in the ability to register siblings for the same week of camp.

Incomplete registrations will not be processed and will not reserve your child’s space in summer camp. Payment is required at time of registration.

If you are not a current Zoo member, renewals and new memberships must be submitted prior to registering for summer camp. The simplest way to become a Nashville Zoo member or renew your membership is online at http://www.nashvillezoo.org/membership.

You will receive a confirmation e-mail when your completed registration form is processed.

There are a limited number of camp scholarships currently available for Summer Camp 2012 made possible by the Nashville Predators Foundation. To apply for a scholarship to summer camp, please download the Scholarship Application.

If the week you would like to register for is already full, please complete the Camp Waitlist Request.
