SUMMARY:Summer Camp Session 3: What Would Nature Do?
DESCRIPTION:Ages 6-7 & Ages 8-10 \nJuly 11-22 (two weeks)\n$495 members / $ 525 non-members\nWhat is the best way to cool off on a hot day? How can we save energy powering trains? Animals\, plants and other organisms have been adapting to challenges like this for the whole history of our planet. Nature has a lot to teach us about how to solve problems in ways that are good for the Earth. Through hands-on inquiry\, games\, art and outdoor investigations we will discover the efficiency of nature’s adaptations and ask what we can learn from nature about how to live more sustainably.

SUMMARY:Summer Camp Session 3: Leadership Training camp
DESCRIPTION:Ages 11-13\nJuly 11-22 (two weeks)\n$595 members / $625\nLeadership Training Camp is back for its third season in Summer 2016! We are thrilled to be continuing this program as a two-week session jam-packed with outdoor adventures\, group challenges\, nature hikes and leadership discussions. This exciting camp is a combination of all the usual Hitchcock camp games and songs and leadership skills that will apply to being a Junior Counselor at Hitchcock and just in life! We hope to incorporate our favorite activities from last year\, such as rock climbing\, the ropes course challenge and our camping overnight\, and go on new trips too. We’ll get a chance to both work with the younger campers to put what we learn into practice and to be campers ourselves playing in the woods and exploring nature. This camp is designed for all Hitchcock campers ages 11-13 (entering sixth through eighth grade) whether you’re a first-time Leader in Training or returning from last year.
