Nature Camps – Day Camp
Environmental and outdoor adventure education program focusing on children’s sense of wonder; learning about themselves, peers, and nature in a beautiful, peaceful 240 acres of Nature Conservancy Woodlands along the Gunpowder River in Monkton.

Children who better understand their place in the environment become something else themselves – they become environmental stewards. What a person connects to, they care for. And when each of us cares for our natural heritage today, then collectively we will preserve our global natural heritage for tomorrow. At Nature Camps, we facilitate ways for children and teens to experience the beauty, marvels, and intricacies of nature. We give children opportunities to feel their environment. To draw it close to them. To love it. To understand it as an intrinsic part of themselves. Children then build an understanding of and an appreciation for the natural world, and their place in it.
