The Denny Sanford Wildlife Explorers Basecamp (opening February 2022) will be a dynamic new play and learning space for children. From tunnels to treetops, waterfalls to creeks, new perspectives and ways to experience a variety of habitats and their animal residents will inspire creativity and foster the joy of exploration.
