Kid's Summer Camp 2026
Summer camp was fun this year! We started off with treasure hunts and ended up in survival mode as we learned knots and played tug-of-war! Of course, you can't forget the potions, making home-made salve, the animal ambassadors from Chimney Rock, or the day we made our own worm farms!
We will update you for Summer Camp 2027!
