Form 990-ez, Part III, Line 28

We organize our campers into small, age-appropriate groups to ensure everyone has fun, feels supported, and gets the most out of their summer adventure: little explorers (ages 2.5 - 4.5) our youngest campers thrive in a cozy, nurturing environment with extra staff support. These little ones enjoy age-tailored activities with plenty of play, creativity, and gentle guidance. Curious campers (ages 5 - 7) ready for a little more independence, this group dives into nature-based learning, imaginative play, and hands-on discovery with new friends. Big adventurers (ages 8 - 11) older kids get to explore more challenging wilderness skills, art projects, group games, and leadership activities, all while building confidence and teamwork.
