Our Beaver campers had a blast this week exploring the forest, fields, and creeks of Brumley Forest. We had a chance to see (and touch!) some critters including a praying mantis, crawdads, a northern water snake, and a black rat snake! Games were another hit with campers searching for the best trees to hide behind, dodging flying socks, stealing tails and feathers, and searching for mysterious hidden objects. Viney Village, crafting time, and water time rounded out our dirty, tired, and fun camp days. Check out some photos to get a peek into our week of Beaver camp!
Our weapons-themed week was a real hit…it was a flying success… it kept the campers sharp! We practiced our concentration and calmness with archery, learned about the physics of an atl atl, and even had a chance to try throwing some hatchets in this jam-packed week. The campers also had a fantastic time playing games like Six Feathers and Windigo, building dams and stacking rock towers in the creek, practicing whittling skills, and looking for critters (hello snakes and turtles!). Take a look at our photos to get a sneak peek into our fun-filled week!

Our very first Brumley Campout was a wild success! During the day campers ran through the forest trying to kick the can and snuck around searching for hiding spots and magical items. We were lucky enough to find some snakes this week including a big black rat snake and a queen snake! Once we got to the overnight, we used some excellent teamwork to set up our tents, cook dinner over a fire (garlic bread, salad, and spaghetti), and fall asleep to the (some might say loud) sounds of nature! Unfortunately, almost all of the pictures from this week were lost. You can check out a few that survived to see a tiny glimpse of our week!
Praying Mantis was a fun-filled and busy three days! Our campers had a chance to play some classic Schoolhouse games like Sock Wars and Dragon’s Egg where they got to be sneaky and silent or goofy and loud (throwing socks at each other gets pretty silly!). Creek time was a favorite for many campers who got muddy, found crayfish and clams, skipped rocks, and cooled off! We had some luck looking for animals, including a baby northern water snake. Viney Village was another highlight as campers climbed and swung around. Take a look at our photo gallery to get a glimpse into our week!
