STAR Eco Station3513

The STAR ECO Station is an 18,000 square-foot environmental science and wildlife rescue center in a tropical jungle setting. Through a partnership with the US Fish and Wildlife Service, STAR ECO Station rescues and houses at-risk and endangered exotic wildlife.

Visitors study ecology and environmentalism during a wild and fun encounter with the STAR ECO Station's rescued tropical birds, exotic reptiles, wildcats, and ocean life. The Station's interdisciplinary, hands-on lessons of compassion and empathy for the natural world inspires visitors to a deep understanding of their role in protecting their Earth.

The ECO Station is also available to host a variety of special events throughout the year, including birthday parties. Birthday party packages include a guided tour and private party time. For additional fees, the station can provide (or book) custom invitations, custom goody bags, a Moon Bounce, cotton candy, popcorn, nachos, sno-cones, hot dogs, gourmet dogs, and more.

Offered summers and school holidays, Camp ECO invites kids to spend their vacation with Caiman alligators, felines, tropical birds, reptiles, arachnids, and other exotic creatures in a place that looks, feels, and sounds like the real jungle. Children learn environmental science while working alongside real scientists and ecologists. Camp hours are from 9am-4pm (extended day available), and space really is limited, so sign up early!

Other Star Camps include chess camp, cheer camp, rock star camp, and more - in locations from Sherman Oaks to LA to Pacific Palisades. Email summercamps@starinc.org or visit www.starcamps.org for more information.
