Come spend time outdoors exploring and getting to know more
about our local forest preserves. This outdoor camp will focus on
building awareness skills, making connections to the natural world,
and developing an understanding of relationships and
interdependence of systems and communities. This camp will provide
an overview of wilderness safety, animal tracking, plant and tree
identification, cooking simple outdoor meals, mindfulness
activities and games. Participants will learn skills and practices
they can incorporate into their daily lives. The camp will conclude
with a stewardship workday clearing invasive species from a section
of forest at Evans Field.
Transportation available.
