IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0SUMMER CAMP - THIS WEEKLY CAMP IS FOR CHILDREN FROM AGES 3 TO 14 FOR ELEVEN WEEKS EVERY SUMMER. IN 2018 WE WELCOMED 951 CAMPERS ADDING UP TO A TOTAL OF 4,725 CAMP DAYS. RIVERBEND'S CREATIVE CAMP LESSON PLANS INCORPORATE CURIOSITY, EXPLORATION, AND INQUIRY.

RIVERBEND EDUCATORS USE THIS OPPORTUNITY TO ENCOURAGE CAMPERS TO PRACTICE 21ST CENTURY SKILLS LIKE RESILIENCY, SELF-REFLECTION, AND GRIT. MOST IMPORTANTLY, RIVERBEND CAMPERS FALL IN LOVE WITH NATURE AND CARRY THOSE MEMORIES THROUGH LIFE
