Branching Out
March 17 - 21
Branch out with us and learn more about trees and your place in the forest. From saplings to stumps, you can’t have a forest without trees! Tall trees, short trees, fallen trees, and snags - each one plays an important part in the forest ecosystem! We will get to know the quiet giants of the forest through up-close examination, sensory learning, and games.
Mystery Week
March 24 - 28
What is Mystery Week? A week full of fun and surprises: each day, the theme will be something different. Monday might be about Owls and Tuesday might be about Fire Building. Each day will be a new experience with different activities and nature exploration.
Tales & Trails
March 31 - April 4
Twist some tales and explore some trails. This camp will encourage your child to fully engage their mind in writing stories about the wonders of nature. Campers enter the story world they create while exploring and playing games of mythical creatures and or famous folklore and may even create their own.
