About Arkansas Outdoor School Summer Day Camps
📍 Located at the C.A. Vines Arkansas 4-H Center | Ages 9–13

Looking for a place where your child can unplug, explore, and grow? Welcome to Arkansas Outdoor School Summer Day Camps — a weeklong day camp experience designed to help kids discover the natural world and build lifelong skills in the great outdoors. Based just west of Little Rock at the bea

utiful C.A. Vines 4-H Center, our camp is spread across 220+ acres of fields, forests, creeks, and a private 6-acre lake. We offer weekly themed sessions for kids ages 9–13, with core activities including canoeing, archery, swimming, hiking, rock climbing, and arts & crafts. Each week has a unique theme — from science and survival skills to pioneer living and critter encounters — all designed to spark curiosity and confidence in young minds. Our trained outdoor educators keep things fun and safe with a 10:1 camper-to-staff ratio and a focus on teamwork, communication, and personal growth. At Arkansas Outdoor School, there are no desks — just trails, wide-open skies, and room to explore, imagine, and grow.

🌟 Learning outside the box — and the building!
🌿 Weekly sessions, Monday–Friday

Pioneer skills: unlocked!🪵🔥🎣

This week our campers are going back to the basics. After learning how to start a fire and craft fishing poles, campers put those new skills to the test. They caught, cleaned, and cooked fresh fish!They also tapped into their creative side by crafting soap and dipping candles.

They’re ready for life on the frontier!🏕️✨

Exciting News!

Applications are live for the Young Makers Market. https://4h.zsuite.org/external-event-registration/44859

The Young Makers Market is open to any youth entrepreneur between the ages of 5-18. There are retail booth and food truck spaces available.

Applications will be taken through March 2. Applications will be reviewed and selections will be announced late March/early April. Selections will be made based on products being sold. We don't want to oversaturate the market in an attempt for the market to be successful for everyone.

Items must be made/grown by the youth vendor. They may not sell items for their parents/guardians. Parents/guardians will be asked to take on a support role and not sell for the youth or interact with the customers. Our goal is for the youth to be able to learn/grow for the experience and share their experiences with the customers.

Please share with any youth that you know might be interested.
