2008 Nature Discovery Camp (Ages 5-8)
Nature Discovery Camps are “hands on” experiential, active, creative, and progressive camps that will introduce children to the natural world. Fields, forest, streams and ponds will be our classroom. Games, crafts, collecting, and sensory awareness activities will be on the bill for each camp. The camp also uses the Student Recreation Center to swim, climb and play traditional camp games. If your child would like building bug houses, searching for seeds and digging in the dirt, then this is the place for them.
