Ranger Skills

“My daughter loved Ranger Skills Day Camp and came home grubby, excited, and happy every day! What a great experience. This was her second year at this camp and she loved it again! Thanks so much to the creative and caring counselors. Can’t wait to see you next year!”

“At Wilderness Awareness Ranger Camp my daughter had an amazing experience camping in the woods and learning about nature, and she met a bunch of wonderful people, too.”

– Father of 13 year old camper

“As a first-timer, my child loved the active nature of Ranger Skills Day Camp! The games were definitely a hit and it was great to see the learning about nature that went along with it. Our family is excited to come back next year and to connect with Wilderness Awareness programs throughout the year as well!”

– Parent of Alex (9)

This is the ultimate day camp for kids who love to move, play, and discover the magic of nature while becoming true Guardians of the Wild!

At Ranger Skills Camp, kids will learn to move silently and fluidly, discover the art of camouflage, and mimic wild animals. They’ll be free to run, jump, and engage in wild play in the woods while learning safe and easy natural movement techniques.

Campers will learn to calm their mind like a Jedi, move in rhythm with the forest like Aragorn, and explore the world as a Ranger!
