Roots Summer Camp- Corinth

Two weeks to choose from, or come for both!   July 16th-20th and July 23rd-July 27th. 

 

Summer Camp done Roots style. Wilderness Living and Suvival skills, tracking and nature study, games and exploration, and more await students at this week long day camp. Join us for an adventure into the wilds of Vermont, with Roots Summer camps. Ages 6-13.   This camp is at our Corinth location. You can also check out camp in Marshfield, VT.

 

This is a week in which we focus on wilderness skills, nature awareness, and tracking. Campers will find their days full of exploring the natural world as we move through the Vermont woods, wetlands, and fields studying the plants, trees, birds, mammals, insects, and amphibians. We will work on survival skills such as emergency shelters, primitive fire-making, finding and purifying wild water, and learning poisonous, edible, medicinal, and fiber-producing plants.

Campers will make a number of hand-made projects, maybe atl-atls, pine bark water kettles, naturalist sketchbooks and journals, spears, bow drill kits, survival sticks, bolas, throwing sticks, cordage, and much more.

We place students into groups by similar ages, and the group ages will reflect how many campers we have and their ages. and cannot his is in response to many parent requests to move children from one age group to another. All groups will work with experienced instructors with a passion for the skills and the ability to provide powerful growing opportunities for students.

This is a packed week, full of excitement and new experiences. Student-to-staff ratios will not exceed seven to one, giving us the ability to meet and challenge every student individually.  There are medically trained members of staff on site.

Camping is not available for this week.
