My child went into this camp having just moved to the area and knowing nobody else there, and came out with several good friends and greater knowledge of local plants and animals than his parents. The counselors did a great job keeping the kids safe, teaching them about nature, encouraging them to have fun, and helping them form new relationships.
This week our campers had a great time making bamboo-based instruments! Along with making our own musical rhythms, we spent time listening to the calls and songs of our native birds. This group also loved fort building and worked together to create a village, complete with an economic system of sticks, leaves and quartz rocks. Check out these photographs to see all of our creations!

This wild and creative bunch of campers was an excellent way to close our summer at Umstead State Park. They ran in the fields, hid in the woods, splashed in the creeks and much more. We spent our week playing some classic Schoolhouse games like Beckon, building forts, and looking for critters. Take a look at the photos below to see how we ended our summer season dirty, tired, and happy!
Whittling! Forts! Games! Oh my! We had a blast closing out our summer season with this awesome group of campers. We explored the trails and creeks of Umstead State Park, made new friends, sang songs, heard stories, and much more. We found several critters, including a box turtle that was a highlight for many campers. Take a look at the photos below to see some of the fun.
This week in camp we practiced our outdoor photography and journaling skills. You can even see some of our work in this gallery! A few of the photos have initials in the corner of the image and those initials represent the camper who took that photo. We love the memories we created in photos, journals, and in all of the awesome games we played!
