grow their understanding of and commitment to the stewardship of our
earth.

What is camp without Popsicle sticks,
glue, paint and construction paper? Campers will create arts &
crafts that will pursue the weekly themes. Students will be
encouraged to make visual connections between arts and nature. Great
opportunity to be creative and combine learning with hands on
activities!

and wildlife habitat with Google Earth, digital mapping, geo-caching
