Week 1: Winged Creatures of the Day and Night
Learn about the raptors and winged mammals that rule the daytime and nighttime skies at St. Edwards State Park. From Eagles and Red-Tailed Hawks to Owls and Bats, join us as we take to the skies and to discover what makes these flying wonders special.
Week 2: Creative Campers
Learn how to create beautiful, eye-catching works of art with or without art supplies! Build sculptures from sticks and rocks, paint with mud, create a self-portrait from pinecones and dirt, then experiment with watercolors, yarn and fabric for projects you can take home.
Week 3: Outdoor Skills for Outdoor Kids
Learn fun and valuable outdoor skills through games and hands-on activities. Together we'll explore outdoor survival techniques, map reading and orienteering skills, shelter building, knot tying and basic first aid.
Week 4: Flora and Foraging
Come forage with us and discover the bounty of the PNW forest. Make paint from berries and tea from stinging nettles. Learn to identify native plant species and their non-native competitors and how people use these resources for food, shelter and fun!
Week 5: Nature Detectives
Who lives in this forest? How do you know? Learn how to find the signs of animal activity hidden in the forests, fields and streams. We’ll discover animal tracks, scat, nests and burrows and so much more.
Week 6: Nature is a Theater
