For children entering grades 6-8 in Fall 2025

This week we will explore all things aquatic while learning the basics of getting around on the water safely.  We will use kayaks and canoes to get us out onto and INTO these wild water habitats - investigating with nets, water quality testing equipment – and our senses. The last 2 days of the week will be an overnight adventure to a paddle-in campsite on the Patuxent River.

Campers should be comfortable on and in the water and should be competent swimmers.

Registration fee includes camp water bottle, camp duffle bag, all camping fees and equipment needed, Thursday snacks, dinner and campfire with s'mores, and Friday breakfast.
