Welcome to the Superkids Summer Program
Unplug, move, and create under the open canopy! Our outdoor summer program gives kids ages 6–12 a vibrant mix of high-energy team games, rustic open-fire and outdoor cooking, nature-inspired arts, and hands-on crafts. Meanwhile, teens ages 13 and up step into our unique Apprenticeship Program—learning leadership, basic outdoor survival guidance, and group dynamics while working side-by-side with instructors to help run the camp. It is a full-energy, screen-free week where older kids step into their leadership potential and younger kids thrive in a supportive, active outdoor family.
Daily Tentative Schedule: Monday through Friday (9:00 AM – 2:00 PM)
1.Arrival & Open-Air Team Games: 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM
Kick off the morning with high-energy movement. We focus on team-building games, obstacle courses, self defense techniques and games, agility challenges, and cooperative sports that get everyone loose, laughing, and working together. Apprentices lead the warm-ups.
2.Outdoor Crafting & Nature Art: 10:00 AM – 11 AM
Cool down under the shade. Campers dive into hands-on projects using both traditional art supplies and natural elements—think crafts with wood, clay sculpting, wild weaving, or building camp infrastructure. On some days we will have a fire safety class with cookout over a fire with food to grill.
3.Wilderness Kitchen (Cooking):11 AM – 12PM
Time to cook! Kids learn real, hands-on culinary skills adapted for the outdoors, focusing on knife safety, fresh summer ingredients, some farm to table ingredients or assembling hearty trail snacks and hand-pressed meals.
4.The Feast & Midday Rest: 12PM – 1PM
Everyone sits together to enjoy the food we prepared, supplemented by packed lunches. This is a dedicated downtime for for kids to interact with each other with storytelling and other fun games they can play.
5.Camp Championship & Apprenticeship Huddle:1PM – 1:45PM
A grand finale daily event—a massive game of capture the flag, an outdoor scavenger hunt, or water-based field games. While campers wrap up, the 13+ Apprentices run the closing circle and complete their daily leadership evaluation.
6. End of Day Integration Circle: 1:45PM-2PM
An end-of-day integration circle is all about grounding the energy, celebrating wins, and leaving everyone excited to return tomorrow. We gather the group in a tight circle, passing around a natural token like a smooth river stone, and have each camper share their favorite highlight or a teammate they want to shout out. Finally, we will have our teen apprentices lead a quick "leave no trace" sweep of the space before breaking the circle with a high-energy group cheer to ground in responsibility.
After camp is done get ready for Super Kids Every Friday program starting in Aug! For more info click here
