About This Activity
Nature Explorers Come discover what lives among the rocks and ripples of our neighborhood stream. A fascinating world of plants and critters exists in Gilman’s backwoods and the stream banks of Stony Run. Campers will spend the morning exploring the many hidden natural spaces on campus and going on stream walks. They will enjoy bird watching, fort building, wild nature play, outdoor games, journaling, and nature crafts. Join us for a week of old-fashioned outdoor fun. Learn how all things are connected and what we can do to protect our natural world. *Please send your camper each day with a water bottle, sunscreen/bug spray already applied, a hat, a small/lightweight backpack, crocs/ (closed-toed) water shoes, and a change of clothes (we will get wet!) including a pair of tennis shoes. A healthy snack will be provided each day.
