Jr. High Eco-Explorer's Camp

The earth is full of God’s “riches and creatures.”  Come and explore God's wonderful creation in this exciting camp.   Plants and critters “many and varied” are hiding in plain sight – if you know where to look!  Using all their senses, Eco-Explorers will explore the natural world, look under rocks, learn to identify animal tracks, taste the flavors that native plants have to offer, and challenge themselves to live "‘more greenly."  Campers are sure to go home with a renewed love and respect for God’s amazing creation through this camp.
