Junior Outdoor Explorers Camp

JUNIOR OUTDOOR EXPLORERS CAMP (AGES 4-7)

Our Junior Outdoor Explorers camp aims to entice our campers with an appreciation for both art and nature as we expose them to Ridley’s beautiful 90-acre wonder. Campers will observe the diverse beauty of our campus through a variety of fun outdoor nature-themed activities and adventures. Scavenger hunts, crafts and outdoor group games are just a few examples of how their days will be filled! While indoors, campers will have the opportunity to draw connections from their observations in the natural world, creating a variety of mixed-media projects. 

Please note camp will not run on Wednesday, July 1, 2026.  

Cost: $450 per week

Hot lunch provided.
