WHAT WILL MY CHILD DO AT ECO CAMP?

Eco camp is a week-long day camp for children ages PreK-6th grade. We believe a passion for stewardship begins with cultivating a love of nature and being outdoors. We'll discuss plants, animals, renewable energy, gardening, composting, recycling, and how to be a responsible caretaker of our planet. Children will be engaged in environmental education through a variety of lessons, activities, games, stories, crafts, garden experiences, outdoor play, healthy snacks, field trips, and more!

WHY BIRDS?

Did you know that 2018 has been named the Year of the Bird? It's been 100 years since the Migratory Bird Treaty Act was passed to protect migratory birds in the United States and Canada. Many species were under threat from commercial trade in birds and bird feathers. Although over 800 species remain protected under this act, birds face many other dangers today! Join us at camp to find out how you can help the birds, while also learning to be a good steward of our planet!
