The Sign up from for Summer 2025 will be available starting January 5th!
Summer Camp
Ages: 3 – 10
Location: 13813 Otter Road Ely MN, 55731
This program focuses on social skill building, self-driven exploration, leadership practice, physical skills development, and learning about the natural world. Each day we will meet in the forest classroom to welcome each other back and then we will pursue the adventures that we want to explore that day. We have tons of activities that children can choose to participate in such as berry picking, fort building, nature hikes, hamocking, fire building, and so many more options. We also encourage children to make up their own games and include others in them so that they can practice challenging, yet critical, social skills.
Program options and Cost:
Half day - 8am to Noon - $27 a day
Full Day - 8am to 5pm - $39 a day
All programs run Monday through Friday starting June 10th and ending August 30th
