The forest is calling

this summer you can travel between creek and forest

to discover where YOU truly belong – amidst the majestic wonders of Nature! 

Our camp is a sanctuary for young adventurers who thirst for excitement and crave knowledge of the natural world. 

We invite you to forge a personal connection with the hidden life of trees.  

Together we will Discover the secrets of a magnificent 32-acre natural ecosystem in the fringes of Bellevue. As we play in the forest and the creek we will become scientists studying the forest and aquatic habitats. We will create maps of trails and navigate with accuracy. We will forage native edibles and grow gardens and orchards of delicious fruits. It will be fun to prepare foods together. We will learn about conservation, the kingdoms of life, local biodiversity, and methods to curb detrimental invasive plant species. We bet that you will enjoy the explorations, arts, crafts, and treasure hunts. As we build and carve bridges, dams, and forts we will find and collect fossils and minerals, learn to identify birds by songs, mammals by their footprints, and arthropods by their habits.

Now more than ever, all children need nature!
