Holly Loscavio is one of the Dunwoody Nature Center’s longest-tenured educators – going back to the summer of 1997 when she first joined our team. Holly has a B.S. in Conservation Biology from Brigham Young University (’94) and has taught field trip programs, summer camps, scout programs, and preschool programs with the Nature Center. Holly’s popular “Mommy & Me” programs introduce children to a love of nature, which they carry with them throughout life. Holly loves to spend time outside with her husband and their blended family of six children. Holly enjoys running marathons, and when not at work or with her family, she is usually on long runs on the greenway near her home. Holly loves teaching children about nature and their role in preserving the planet. We at the Dunwoody Nature Center are thrilled to have Holly as our Summer Camp Director.

The Dunwoody Nature Center’s goal is for every camper to have the opportunity to have fun and discover their strengths. In order to do this, every child must feel safe at camp. Please review the following policies with your child before arriving at camp, as this is what helps us ensure everybody’s safety and the quality of our programs. Download the Behavior Policy here.
Our campers spend the camp day participating in specific camp-themed nature activities both inside and outside. They’ll play games, make crafts, do experiments, hike on the trails, and play on the playground. Campers will need to bring a snack, lunch, and a refillable water bottle every day. Please apply sunscreen and bug spray prior to drop off. Please include a note indicating if you want the teacher to reapply sunscreen and bug spray. Campers should dress for the weather, wearing comfortable summertime clothes and closed-toe shoes.
Our camp teachers are either trained naturalists or formal school teachers. All of our camp teachers are First Aid and CPR certified. We have one teacher to ten campers for our half-day camps. We have one teacher to thirteen campers for our full-day campers. Each camp class has a designated classroom space to leave bags and lunches.
Please let the camp director know by email who will be picking up your child each day. We do ask for identification at pick up; if their name is not on our pick up list we will need to reach you before we release your child to them.
We find that if your child is in a regular classroom at school without an aide, then they usually do great at our camps. Our teachers are wonderful, but most are not trained in special education. If your child requires a special education classroom or teacher, then our camps might not be a good fit.
