Available Camps:

Magic of the Forest (June 18-22 9:00am-1:00pm)
Discover the Magic of the forest in our natural woodsy play space. Our nature trail winds through our little forest over the creek and under the canopy of tall leafy trees. Nature offers us so much to do as we explore the trails and the creek. The magic is there for each child to discover. They may even spot a dragonfly or a fairy! Our playground will also be our classroom with swinging and climbing, cooking in the mud kitchen, painting and creating messy art and making fairy houses or digging for treasure.

Along the Trail (June 25-29 9:00am-1:00pm)
Hike our trail and see what can be found along the path. Learn to identify leaves, plants, moss and the little bugs crawling about. Create obstacle courses and shelters with tree branches and logs. The wood offer endless opportunities for children to challenge themselves, use their imagination, and work together as a team to accomplish big tasks. There will be time to create art with special found treasures. Bring backpacks with supplies for the day and enjoy the adventure!

Camp Out (July 9-13 9:00am-1:00pm)
Storytelling, camp songs, and lessons on tying a proper knot in a rope are best at the campsite. So….pitch a tent, set up the campsite, gather firewood and fish in the creek. The depth of the play is up to the imagination. One thing that is sure to happen is a fun daily adventure. We will also enjoy some time on the playground and lots of fun art activities and projects.
Pack a backpack with lunch and supplies for the day and join the adventure!

Stir It UP! (July 16-20 9:00am-1:00pm)
Aspiring chefs or kids who love to mix things up, will love a week of stirring things up inside and out! Each day there will be a cooking project as well as some fun recipes that are just for playing. The science of mixing things together to create a completely different matter is amazing and the best way to understand is with hands on discovery. Weighing, measuring, pouring, stirring and tasting. This will be a fun and sometimes very silly, and best of all….. yummy week!

I Am Art! (August 6-10 9:00am-1:00pm)
Discover the Artist in you! Everyone is capable of making art. Art is visual, art is experiential, art is for everyone. Find ways to create art; with color, with objects, with movement, with sound, and with light and shadow. Some art is permanent and some is temporary. Each day there will be endless opportunities to create art with many art materials and mediums. From fine art supplies to fibers, nature found items and recycled materials we will find the artist in everyone.

Make a Splash!!! (August 13-17 9:00am-1:00pm)
As the days heat up we will keep cool with water play. Children will find so many ways to use water, such as; watering the garden, painting the fence, mixing with dirt and mulch in the mud kitchen, and cooling off in our playground creek. We will paint with water colors, add color to water and freeze it and make marbleized paper and bubble art. Scientific discoveries, art projects, and fun with other campers! We will end the week with a big splash!
