Session 1 – July 10-14
Arthropods GO!
Insects and other hard-shelled leggy creatures rule just about every habitat on the planet. Let’s spend a week on a quest to find them! We’ll search high and low, in fields, forests, and streams to learn all about how these amazingly adapted animals have survived for millions of years, and what they can tell us about the health of our planet today.
Session 2 – July 17-21
Birds!
Session 3 – July 24-28
Wilderness Survival Skills
Ever wonder what you would do if you got lost in the woods? Wonder no longer – this week long adventure will cover all the bases: fire building, survival kits, shelter building, navigation, and other primitive skills. The first rule of wilderness survival is to stay positive – you can survive. We’ll teach you how.
Session 4 – July 31-August 4
Guardians of the Green
Ever wondered how Baltimore Woods stays green? Behind the scenes, a team of guardians keeps the woods wild and healthy…and you can be part of it! This week, we’ll get to know the heart of The Woods through trail projects, habitat restoration, and hands-on conservation science – all while having a blast with a group of people that care about nature as much as you do. Get ready to roll up your sleeves and learn to be a Guardian of the Green!
Session 5 – August 7-11
Nature and Art
Do you love to create rock sculptures, draw and paint forest scenes, or make musical instruments from natural objects? Join us for a week of creative fun in nature! This week will be filled with engaging activities and games that are guided by the group’s interests. Working both as a team and individually, we will focus on the process of using visual and performance art to enjoy nature and have fun.
Session 6 – August 14-18
Strange Nature
The forest we see everyday is home to some truly bizarre things! This week we’ll dig deep into the lives of insects, fungus, soil, and muck to discover some strange new worlds in familiar places. If it’s odd, amazing, yucky, or just downright weird we’ll learn all about it.
