Camp Descriptions
Animal Engineers: Nature is full of fantastic builders! In this camp we will explore amazing structures found in nature—animal homes, spiderwebs, and some of nature’s neatest plants—and uncover what makes these natural builders so remarkable. We’ll then put our creativity and imaginations to the test to see if we can build our own constructions inspired by nature.
Survival in the High Desert: It’s mayhem in the High Desert! Use your smarts to navigate an obstacle course like a ground squirrel, avoid a boiling lake of lava, and test your courage on a journey across the sagebrush desert. It’s time to put your game face on. Are you a survivor?
Gusty, Blustery & Breezy: The High Desert is known for serious windy weather, but what else can we learn about wind using observation skills and experiments? Explore the windy world around us with kites, turbines, and windsocks!
Colors By Nature: Be inspired by the colors of the natural world around us, and then, use the natural world to create your own palette of color! Come fashion nature journals, create natural dyes, and use nature to create true works of art.
Animalympics: Can turtles jump hurdles? Can your javelin stick in a target like a porcupine quill? Which High Desert animal would win in a foot race? Go for the gold in this Olympic-themed camp filled with fun events.
