Adventure Camp: Fire on the Mountain (ages 8-12)

Exploration and observation of the role of fire on Mt. Adams and how we co-exist with it! This week of Adventure Camp will explore the watershed that feeds the city of White Salmon.

Children will learn about the flora and fauna of the area while enjoying old growth forest, trail-side crafts, safe swimming (wading) holes and lots of joyful play.

Camp will begin with our safety and team-building lessons to ensure children know the essential safety protocol and rules of the forest. Counselors will then guide students  into the van for a trip to the scene of a decade-old fire. 

We will learn about fire as a foundational element of life. Explore the effects of fire and learn about the flora and fauna that survives and thrives after a wildland fire. 

Field trips will be partnered with stories about fires from around the world. Songs and celebration of fire as well as fire safety in a wildland fire zone.

Camp runs from 9am-4pm Monday-Thursday. Extended care available. 

Open to ages 8-12 (13 & 14 yr olds are welcome as long as they are comfortable in a mixed age group)
