Weeklong Summer Adventures
Vivid Earth Summer Camps inspire campers to build confidence and discover lifetime pursuits. These are not merely guided trips, but learning experiences filled with fun, games, friends, new experiences, healthy risks, courageous decisions, goal setting, and so much more! With help from our amazing staff, campers will learn to navigate and read maps, tie knots, properly paddle a canoe, and correctly belay a climber, among other skills. We will build a community in the week we’re together and form incredible bonds and friendships.
A week at camp is an unforgettable experience filled with memories of lifetime!
Programming is available for ages 8-10, 11-15, and a leadership program for ages 16-17. Read below for more information on each program.
