Has anyone done Career Camp at Sea World/Busch?

[goldcupmom]

I'm thinking about taking my dd to FL for the 'Career Camp' at Sea World this summer. Has anyone done this? We did the TFAD at Discovery Cove, and I'm hoping it's not as basic as that.

TIA

I see that this post is over a month old, and no one has answered...but hopefully someone will see it now.

I too am looking for someone who has sent a child to this camp. My 12yr old and her friend want to attend this summer. I emailed the camp and asked for an itinerary of what the children would be doing. I received a reply the same day, but it was very vague, and only said that it was packed with fun and learning. I was hoping for more info than that!
(Last year they went to Space Camp in Huntsville, and they were able to provide a complete itinerary before booking)

Certainly someone who reads this boards knows SOMEONE who has a first hand experience with this ?

Please help !! We'd like to book soon

Maybe this might help? Its a sort of review written by a girl who did career camp at SW Texas http://keikolover.tripod.com/careers.html

I went ahead and signed DD14 up for the 7/17 - 7/22 session. In the packet we received with MUCH to fill out and send back including a physical form, our sample itinerary is as follows(summarized):

Day 1 - arrive 5 p.m. - orientation - pizza dinner - explore career opportunities & responsibilities, go to rescue & rehab hospital before bedding down next to manatees. (they have to bring a sleeping bag & pillow)

Day 2 - help maintain animal areas & make animal enrichment devices. After the day you can ride Kraken and then go back to Hotel (Fairfield Inn & Suites) for free time/swim time

Day 3 - Aquarium department, visit animal attractions & shows, ride Atlantis.

Day 4 - Animal Training Dept. animal shows, relax at hotel

Day 5 - Discovery Cove, dinner at SW, shopping time then sleep next to the dolphins

Day 6 - breakfast & pick up at 10 a.m.

Says 2 people per room.

If you want any more specific info, feel free to PM me, it might be in the packet.

On the final payment sheet you decide if you want another t shirt($10 each) and a photo package($22.99) or deluxe photo pkg w/ cd's($39.99)

Balance is due 30 days prior as are all of the medical forms, camper bio, etc.

We received parking passes for drop off & pick up days in the packet

I got the packet about a week after I reserved online.
