If you’re wondering what your camper has been up to this week, here are some questions to get the conversation started…
Snail Photo Gallery
Our Snail campers had a fun and silly week! They played classic Schoolhouse games like Kick the Can and Eagle Eye, went on a snail safari and worked on constructing a wild hut. Of course we found critters like snakes and crayfish and even an eastern box turtle! We rounded out the week with some whittling and plenty of time splashing around in the creek.
Kit Photo Gallery
Our Kit campers had a blast this week exploring the woods, creeks, and river of West Point on the Eno park. They snuck around the woods playing Beckon, went to work with Bum Bum Bum, tried to avoid being tagged in Werewolf, and protected their Jedis in Sock Wars. Some campers saw and even touched some critters like snakes, bugs, and a box turtle. And of course, they took time each day to cool off during water time, spending many of their afternoons splashing around in the Eno River! It was an excellent week.
Grasshopper Photo Gallery
Our little architects in Grasshopper camp had a blast building and creating structures and nature art. They built forts, a tunnel, and toad/fairy houses. They found critters like turtles, toads, and bugs of all kinds. They also played some classic Schoolhouse games like Beckon and Dragon’s Egg. Of course, no summer camp week would be complete without daily water time where our Grasshoppers explored different streams and creek spots. It was a great week!
Woodland Gamer Photo Gallery
Our Woodland Gamers ran, hid, dodged, tagged, snagged tails, stole feathers, found hearts, and much more as they learned to play to honor this week. They played tons of games, including Werewolf, Attack & Defend, Windigo, Sock Wars, Scout Mission, and Six Feathers. Of course, they took time out each day to cool off in the Eno River, even trekking to Secret Beach one day. They saw (and sometimes touched!) animals like turtles, snakes, fish, tadpoles, and more. It was an active and exciting week!
Animal Instincts Photo Gallery
Creatures of all kinds took center stage for our Animal Instincts campers. Between their hikes and daily water time, they saw critters like turtles, crayfish, toads, snakes, lizards, snails, birds, and bugs. They also got the opportunity to touch and explore some neat animal skulls! They learned to read clues like teeth and eye placement to help them guess what kind of animal a particular skull comes from. They also managed to squeeze in some classic Schoolhouse activities like whittling, and playing games like Windigo and Werewolf. It was an excellent week!
Raccoon Photo Gallery
Our Raccoon campers had quite the week! We kicked it off on Monday with some special eclipse activities, taking time to learn about sun safety and watch the solar eclipse. After that, it was back to Schoolhouse as normal! Our campers practiced sneaking, running, and flinging with games like Beckon, Dragon’s Egg, Werewolf, and Sock Wars. They also saw some cool critters like a northern water snake, a black rat snake, and a hickory horned devil caterpillar. They also whittled, built forts, explored the Eno River, made smudges, and hiked and explored the park. It was a fun week and a delightful end to our summer season.
