Experiential Outdoors Camp
Step outside your comfort zone!
Join our experiential educators on an adventure of a lifetime! Experience the great outdoors, learn to respect the environment around us and see what Philadelphia has to offer!
Our camps seek to take advantage of the ecological, physical and cultural resources offered by the area. Based on this idea, we have developed an exciting outdoors camp where kids can explore, experience and relate to the environment in a real way. This camp is designed for kids to take healthy risks and step outside their comfort zone. It’s a great way to build confidence, face challenges and learn to trust others.
