Summer Nature Camp Week 3

In addition to our classic nature camp activities this week, campers play and learn lots of outdoor games! With a focus on team building, this session teaches some new and lesser known games, as well as a range of the classics. With a little imagination and collaboration, maybe we’ll even make up our own games!
