Four Elements: Water, Earth, Fire, Air Photo Gallery
This week campers became the masters of all four elements! From making rain sticks and splashing in the creek to spear throwing to fire building, to even firing natural clay sculptures in a kiln, we explored the natural world around us.

Survive & Thrive Photo Gallery
From shelter building to fire making to navigating with compasses, our campers learned how to not only survive in the forest, but thrive too! We saw cool critters in the creek, raced through the forest, and developed friendships along the way.

Growth Rings: All Encompassing Photo Gallery
This week was all about growth as our campers worked on their growth rings skills. We built roaring fires, whittled, searched for snakes, identified plants, and even tried navigating with compasses! Of course, we also had time for lots of games and cooling off in the creek.

Butterfly Photo Gallery
This week we flapped our wings and soared! We splashed in the creek, played silly games, and even made our very own caterpillars that turned into butterflies. We may have started off as little caterpillars, but by the end of the week we were flapping our wings in the breeze as confident butterflies!

Fowl Play Photo Gallery
This week we learned all about our feathery friends – and other fun animals in the forest! Even during a rainy week, we had time to splash in the creek, play lots of games in the woods, and even got to pet a snake! We left this week with new friends, a smile on our face, and mud on our clothes!

Turtle Photo Gallery
This week was so turtle-y awesome dude! We found lots of critters in the creek and on the forest floor and had a chance to hold them. We made handprint turtles and even turned ourselves into stylish turtles and played an action packed game of Turtle Tag! We made lots of new friends this week as we splashed, played, and explored together.
