Description

Gear up for an exciting week as we learn and practice how to interact with the natural world. What does it take to survive in the wilderness? We will try out all sorts of skills to meet our needs of food, water, shelter, and heat including identifying plants, primitive fire making, shelter building, looking for wildlife, and more! Join us for this action-packed week full of skills and adventure.

*In addition to the theme-related activities listed above, every week of camp will include some classic Schoolhouse activities such as: morning and closing circle, deep woods and field games, water time (weather permitting), whittling, storytelling, and of course, looking for any critters we can find!

 

Note:

We try to spend as much time outdoors as possible, even on chilly days! Please send your camper dressed for the weather. If it’s warm enough, we will try to have water time!

  • Dirty, Tired, Happy Guarantee
    Dirty, Tired, Happy. Or your money back. It’s really that simple
    We will return your child dirty, tired, and happy – or we will refund your child’s remaining camp registration.*
     
    Our camps present a unique opportunity for children to grow and learn. While we’re confident and proud of our camps, we realize that no one community is a perfect fit for every child. So we offer you our Dirty, Tired, Happy Guarantee to build trust. We don’t know a better way to demonstrate the confidence we have in our programs than by putting our money where our mouth is.
     
    If you and your child decide that our camp is not the right fit and choose to not return, we’ll refund your camp registration for the remaining days of the camp week.
     
    To obtain a refund under our Dirty, Tired, Happy Guarantee, all you have to do is send us a written request within a week stating that our camp is not a good fit for your child and that you would like a refund for the remaining days of the camp week. It’s that simple. Guaranteed.
     
    We recognize that we might not be the right fit for your camper now, but as they grow and change, we may be a great fit in the future. Any camper who receives a Dirty, Tired, Happy refund is welcome to give camp another try at least one year (or more) after the refund.
     
    *Our Dirty, Tired, Happy Guarantee provides a prorated registration refund to any child who chooses to not complete their registered camp week, with the exception of those who have been asked not to return for a violation of camp rules. We will take your registration payment, divide by the number of camp days for a daily rate, multiply by the number of days your child will not be attending, and refund your credit card.
