Creek Critters September 12-16, 2016
Creek Critters Galore!
This week we came across fresh water mussels, asian clams, aquatic snails, caddisfly larvae, crayfish, salamanders, frogs, some massive catfish, bass, and even sunfish! We also did a lot of tree climbing and played several games, Windigo was definitely a favorite. We had awesome fall weather and a great week at camp!
Thanks for a great start to our fall track out season!
Last Week in Old Timey Camp
Highlights from a fantastic week in Old Timey Adventures camp:
- Built an old timey village with armory, cabin, bank, stores, and even a mayor. Toward the end of the week there was even a bank robbery and courtroom drama.
- Archery, cross-cut saw, old-time games like graces and hoop n’ darts
- Primitive fire-making with quartz and steel
- Six Feathers, werewolf, storm the castle, kick the can, beckon, sock wars, attack and defend
- Singing on hike to secret beach and for the other group (moose song)
- Secret beach and Sennett’s Hole
- Stories like tailey bone and brer rabbit
- Plant walk and pine needle tea
- Big yellow yellow bellied slider, rough green snake, 5-lined skink
- Overnight camp out – evening water time in the river, sleeping outside, meteors, making scrambled pancakes and butter
Camp Mom
Let me just say that if I could, I would put my son in this track out camp EVERY track out. I LOVE that they were outside. I LOVE that they didn’t worry about getting dirty. I LOVE that counselors treated my 7-year-old like a 7-year-old and let him PLAY. Staff made me feel safe and confident that we had our son in a good place for the week. There are not words to thank you enough for providing this amazing camp for the community.

My daughter really enjoyed this camp! She learned to whittle which was so cool, hiked and swam each day, and just got dirty which in my mind is what summer camp is all about! Kids these days spend way too much time inside so we are very happy we found this camp for her. We will definitely be back next summer for multiple weeks!
Wake Parent
We chose this camp because it sounded like the kind of low-pressure nature exploration that defined summer for us as children but that our children rarely get to experience. It lived up to and exceeded that expectation!

My son had a really hard time at drop off: he was tired, had been traveling and really just wanted to be at home, etc. The staff could not have been more amazing at giving him support and space when he needed it: such kindness and savvy about how kids tick is so important and is much appreciated. He perked up, participated in the day, and had really positive things to say, all thanks to the counselors. And I knew that, if things really went south instead, channels of communication were open. Special thanks to the counselors. You all are the best!
