No two camps are alike.
-
The woods are full of birds if you know where to look. Campers will head out with binoculars in hand to search the treetops, listen for calls, and follow the clues birds leave behind. We’ll learn to identify our feathered neighbors, discover their habitats, and see the woods from a bird’s-eye perspective.
-
What can you build with a pile of sticks, a few good friends, and a little imagination? Campers will gather branches, tie knots, and work together to build their own woodland hideaways. Along the way, they’ll learn about shelter, structure, teamwork, and the art of turning the forest into a place all their own.
-
A simple stick can become something entirely your own. Campers will learn the basics of whittling as they safely carve, shape, and smooth pieces of wood, discovering the satisfaction of making something by hand. Each camper will leave with a one-of-a-kind creation.
-
All season long, campers have helped tend the garden. This week they get to see the fruits of that work. Campers harvest, explore, and learn about what they've helped grow, and every child brings a little piece of the garden home with them.
-
The woods are full of clues if you know where to find them. Campers will follow tracks, trails, scat, feathers, and other signs of wildlife as they piece together the stories of the animals that call Linden Wood home. Along the way, they’ll learn how to read the landscape and discover who has been wandering through the woods before them.
A little something extra.
Every so often, we’ll mix things up with a special guest, a visit from someone in the community, or an invitation for families to join us on the trail. You never quite know what or who might show up at Linden Wood.
Good questions. Here are the answers.
From what to pack to what to expect each week, here's everything you need to know before signing up. Still have questions? We'd love to chat.
