Camp Ethos:
Our Summer Camps are an immersive, play-based outdoor experience where children come together to explore, discover, and connect with nature. We do not separate campers by age, as mixed-age learning fosters collaboration, leadership, and empathy. Younger children benefit from observing and learning from older peers, while older campers develop responsibility, patience, and mentoring skills. This natural social dynamic encourages cooperation, creativity, and a deeper sense of community. Through hands-on activities, curiosity-driven learning, and shared experiences, campers engage with the natural environment in meaningful ways, building confidence and social-emotional skills that extend beyond camp.
Program Highlights:
🌿 Exploration & Adventure – Daily hikes, nature scavenger hunts, and guided discovery walks through local trails, beaches, and parks.
🦋 Ecology & Wildlife – Hands-on activities to learn about local plants, animals, and ecosystems through observation, storytelling, and creative play.
🎨 Nature-Inspired Creativity – Art and craft projects using natural materials, encouraging self-expression and creativity in an outdoor setting.
💦 Outdoor Science & Sustainability – Engaging experiments and discussions about environmental stewardship, including water conservation, composting, and the interconnectedness of nature.
🌞 Community & Leadership – Mixed-age group activities that foster mentorship, teamwork, and social-emotional growth.
