In this exciting week, we build homes, shops, and more in our forest fort village! Working as a team, we pulled together our materials and imagination to make creative structures in the forest. We also played a lot of games and cooled off in the creek!

We experience the magic and wonder of nature through creativity and play! This fun-filled week for our youngest campers was a wonderful introduction to experiencing the outdoors. Together we got to know the native trees and plants that call Brumley Nature Preserve home. Campers explored big trees, found berries, and made flower crowns.
June 8-12: Creation and Exploration & Flora and Fauna Finders Photo Gallery
During the first week of summer, our 7–12 year olds team up to tackle the wilderness through a mashup of creation and exploration, finding flora and fauna. Our days flew by as we found crawfish in the creek, box turtles between the trees, and fun times in the forest! Oh, and watch out for the sponges!
June 8-12: Tricks with Sticks Photo Gallery
Whittling was the main focus of this week as campers created everything from cool hiking sticks to wooden spoons. When not working on their next whittling project they defeated the Lich, played Six Feathers, and hiked all the way to Lazy River for creek time!
June 1-5: Woodland Artisans Photo Gallery
We got creative in the forest this week! We gathered our own clay to sculpt and paint, crafted nature journals to capture our discoveries, and made beautiful mandalas with natural materials. It was a hands-on, art-filled week that turned the whole woods into our workshop!
