For these growing explorers, camp provides the perfect balance between adult-driven and child-inspired inquiry. The interests of the children guide the activities within each theme. With a vested interest in what happens at camp, elementary children gain a deep, meaningful knowledge of the thematic topics while they have a great time and develop new friendships.

Every week these campers will have the opportunity to be reading buddies to our younger campers, take pictures and write articles about what is going on around camp for our weekly newsletter, and contribute to other camp projects. These oldest campers are true leaders Under the Trees!

Campers attend one or more weeks, Monday through Friday 8:30 – 1:00 or 8:30 – 3:00.

Children staying until 1:00 enjoy lunch brought from home and a little extra time with their friends! Children staying until 3:00 will enjoy lunch and some extra time to explore the weekly theme.

For campers entering Kindergarten through 1st grade (2021-22 school year).
