The adventure continues all week with canoeing, swimming, and snorkeling as campers learn first hand about different reptiles and amphibians that inhabit the upper Midwest. Evenings are filled with campfires, live animal demonstrations, night frog and toad prowls and guest visitors as campers come to love these scaly and slimy critters. Professional herpetology experts complement activities. The fourth of July will be celebrated with a fun camper festival and evening cookout. Hunt Hill strives to help children gain a better understanding of and respect for the natural environment.
Enrollment is limited to maintain a warm personal atmosphere and low camper-instructor ration.
