PA Day Camp

The Thunder Bay Museum offers themed full-day programming for children ages 6-12 during PA Days.

Each PA Day has a different theme; our inhouse Education Coordinator plans a full range of activities including games, arts and crafts, science experiments, scavenger hunts and much more. PA Days have a special treat where you get to make your own afternoon snack following the PD Day theme.

There is always something new and fun to do on our PD Days.
