April 22nd, 2010 will be the 40 year celebration of the first Earth Day here in America. Since then many rivers have been cleaned up and smog eliminated from our cities. Despite all that success, today our kids are suffering.
Richard Louv , child expert, believes the lack of nature for our kids is causing extreme concern. He calls this phenomenon nature-deficit order. He feels rends such as rises in obesity, attention disorders, and depression are all in part caused by a lack of play in nature.
Summer camps since the early days have been removing children from the city and exposing them to Nature. However, the term camp no longer means a time in the woods. It can be anything from art to legos. As parents we want our kids to gather more knowledge of Nature and thereby see a reason to protect it.. Check in to this. Environmental Camp .
As an Outdoors Summer Camp, the focus is to blend traditional summer camp activities with an appreciation for nature and environment. We make Nature Fun! Here are some campers thoughts..
\”We learn and have Fun. We are always doing stuff! The nature and sunsets are wonderful.\”
\”Sometimes learning about nature take place on a walk to the archery range or walking to go for a swim. Its so cool to see the turtles come up and lay their eggs.\”
\”I love the animals in the Nature Center…I even brought my snake to show all the other campers.\”
\”I had never seen an eagle before…wow.\”
\” It a child\’s natural curiosity that makes our Science Camp work.\” says Lonnie Lorenz the Director \” Frog hunts are always a favorite. They stay in the Nature Center for a day then released back in nature. When campers canoe down a river and see all the beauty they now feel that their is a reason to protect it.\”
For SNC camp is more than nature our small size allows us to promote each child\’s personal development by providing fun, friendship and leadership in a supportive and noncompetitive environment away from home. While children are home all year long, that\’s your time to plant the seeds and direct the thinking patterns which guide your child to how they should behave and socialize. But at summer camp children will have an opportunity to act on their own, be self-reliant and try things for themselves.
To put it in one word, summer camp provides independence, and that\’s a major part of growing up. When campers find adult friends called counselors, whomodel perseverance, listening, teamwork and appreciation of differences, campers set new and high standards for their own behavior. This in turn brings their new found independence more in linewith yourat-home teachings.
Swift Nature Camp provides a place for kids to try new things and make new friends. Swift Nature camp is a new world and a new chance to remake yourself. Returning campers say \”This camp provides me a safe place to be myself.\” We are pretty proud of that.
All this happens in the fun and sun of the north woods of Wisconsin. For staff and campers alike, Swift Nature Camp is more than just a place to be: it is their summer home. So why not join our Swift family this summer?
