OUTDOOREDUCATION
|
On Wednesday January 23 - 24, The Stanley Clark School came out to Camp for two fun filled days in the snow. The kids enjoyed tubing, cross country skiing, team building and making igloos for winter survival. They also enjoyed some indoor activities such as bingo, an egg drop, dream catchers, and the high intensity sport of Hot Chocolate drinking. For an idea of some of the classes offered, check out our class guide. Much of our curriculum is teamwork and education-based, but we can always find a little time for recreational activities such as Canoeing or Archery. The Environmental Outdoor Education program is at its busiest in Spring and Fall, but over the past few years, both Spring and Fall have extended so far that we have added Winter Environmental Outdoor Education to our year. Schools are already signing up for our new classes which include Winter Tracking, Snow Ecology, Frozen Lake Exploration and Snow-shoeing and Snowmound-building. If you know of any schools or teachers in the Michiana (Northern Indiana/Southern Michigan) area whose students would benefit from this program, please call Camp Eberhart (888.YCAMPEB or 269.244.5125) to request our Teacher's Handbook. |
