Family Camp allows parents and younger children to come to camp and learn and grow together at Hawk Circle. We will swim, hike and relax around the campfire and listen to storytellers weave their magic into the night. This camp is a perfect blend of learning and relaxation for parents and sure to please the nature child as well. This camp is a one week version of our East Wind Camp that is specifically designed for younger campers who may be camping and living in the woods for the first time. We will explore the world of the Native Americans through legends, authentic games and experiences that teach, inspire and help children to grow.
Campers learn to help with all aspects of camp life and develop confidence and independence.
While all of our programs have awareness as a founding principle, the camps below deal with these areas almost exclusively. Scout Awareness is about developing our senses through the intense study of tracking, stalking, camouflage, movement and most importantly, the Earth Philosophy that allows us to become more fully in tune with Nature. We will push the limits of our senses through games, exercises and activities that bring us deep into a new relationship with nature and self. Balance and movement will be developed throughout the camp. We will go through a daily regimen of skill practice, stretching and physical workouts, stalking and meditation as we develop strength, endurance and sensitivity to our bodies and the Earth.
