Four week sessions
Our activities are designed to teach traditional camping and outdoor skills, waterfront skills including sailing, canoeing, and kayaking, as well as biking, archery, arts and crafts, singing and drama.
All aspects of the program are supported by a strong ethic of stewardship with an emphasis on community living.
We strive to minimize the distractions often found in the “real-world” and maximize everyone’s exposure to a more basic way of living.
While not primitive, we are rustic—we use outhouses vs. flush toilets, build wood fires to heat water for our showers, live in tipis and tents, learn how to build tarp shelters, dig pit latrines, start one-match fires, give up electronic gadgets, email and the internet.
Basically, we ‘unplug’ for the summer and learn to live without some modern day conveniences and without many distractions of our often times hectic modern life.
Ages 9-16
