Returning campers: Check this out!
Returning campers will receive a collectible patch every time they return to camp. Beginning with Starship Earth, returning campers will receive one round Cosmosphere Camp Alumni patch (the middle patch) and a corresponding wedge patch for each camp they attend over the years – six camps will complete the entire patch.
