Are you 3 years and older? Are you tired of hanging with your parents and going to the same camps and play dates? Join Teacher Matt Kreiter and Teacher Christi Cruz for a preschool camp adventure- group games, outdoor art, scavenger hunts, dramatic play, songs and more. See your old friends, make new ones, play, laugh, and learn, all in one week. We have 3 sessions this summer to choose from--see website for details.

This camp focuses on using our senses to the fullest, as did the ancient “scouts” of many cultures who were able to travel for days without supplies. We will gain greater knowledge of edible plants as food and medicine; tracking as a means of gathering details of animals’ lives without ever seeing them; and “bird language” to allow us to move silently and become more aware of predators.

Puppet Palooza is a week of hands on exploration of a variety of puppet styles (sock, rod, hand/rod and shadow). Students will learn movement, focus, breath, personality and more. Recycled materials and found objects will become Junk Puppet characters. Students will create stories, rehearse, and perform. (Campers younger than age 7 may attend with an adult.)

Come join us in the fairy ring! This four-day camp is inspired by flowers and fairies from classical ballets and nature. Each day is split equally between dance and art. Culminates in an informal performance and gallery of student artwork.

Experience the wonder of nature through the eyes of a dragonfly, the wings of a bird, the ears of a deer, and the feet of a fox. You’ll dip for bugs in our ponds, catch frogs in Sapsucker Creek, and search for snails and snakes in the meadow. Each day will be filled with exploration, activities, games, and art perfectly suited for the budding naturalist.
