Chesapeake Critter Camp-

Chesapeake Critter Camp is catered to our youngest campers.  This is a one week look at what lives in and around the Rappahannock River and Chesapeake Bay watersheds.  Campers will explore and discover the wonders of the area by foot and boat catching critters along the way.  Campers also spend time making critter crafts, assembling aquariums, and creating friendships and memories that will last a lifetime.


Wet, Wild, and Muddy!!
Coed Boarding and Day ages 12-15
Week 3 - July 11 - July 17, 2010

An in depth, hands-on look at the wetlands of Virginia's Chesapeake Bay Watershed.  Campers will get down and dirty; walking, crawling, and swimming through swamps, bogs, fresh and salt water marshes all under the watchful eyes of our highly trained staff.   Campers will gain a better understanding of Chesapeake Bay Wetlands, the most important bay resource, and why they need to be protected. 


Fishing Camp
2 Weeks, Ages 8-13
Coed Boarding and Day
Weeks of     June 27 - July 3, 2010
                      July 4 - 10, 2010
                       

    

In partnership with Virginia Fishing Adventures, learn the basics of fresh and salt water fishing while exploring some of Virginia's most prolific and historic waters. This camp includes fishing for bass, blue gill, spot, croaker, flounder and flathead. See fisheries and professional biologists at work! In fact the director loves fishing so much that he named his son Fisher!

While we cannot legally guarantee you will catch fish, we can share with you some quotes from last summer: "Best Fishing Ever," "I caught the biggest fish," and "That was Awesome!". But mostly, you'll catch a lot of fish.
This is a fun week and proper fishing gear is supplied (but you may bring your own).

Fishing Camp has a different pricing structure $860 for boarding and $550 for day campers.
