EARTH WATER FIRE
SUMMER CAMP 2023
<< Earth, Water, Fire >>
Campers will be taught the exciting elements of preparing a camp space on three different optional levels: "traditional" camping (cool gadgets and camping gear), "roughing it" camping (nothing but the woods!), and "indoor" camping (right in the comfort of your own home)! With the interactive, informative, and FUN camp design, your kiddos will pretty much be able to take care of everything to set up a campsite by Friday! Campers will host each other to show off their shelter, share their camp foods and a fun campfire activity.
Cost > $350 per camper
