Camp Themes

2025 Summer Day Camp – Norfolk

Awesome Animals

July 7- 11

Did you know that you are an animal in nature, and we share our environment with many kinds of amazing animals? Mammals, reptiles, amphibians and more. We will learn about animals through exploration, games and fun activities. Each day we will focus on a family of creatures to find out what makes them different and amazing.

Sticks, Stones, and Bones

July 14 – 18

Become a dinosaur for a day! Travel back in time to examine the mysteries nature has hidden for us within fossils, rocks, and sticks. When you find a stick, what do you imagine it could be? We will build, decorate and create with the sticks around camp including shelters, walking sticks, and much more.

Nature Magic

July 21 – 25

The world of fairies, trolls, and dwarfs is all around us in nature. Open your imagination and join us as witches or warlocks, completing quests to collect magical gems, creating potions and finding the perfect wand. Enjoying the mythical world and natural world all together as one.

Muddy Adventure
