₊˚ʚ 🌱 ₊˚✧ ﾟ.A BIG THANK YOU to Amy Sandager and Cub Scouts Pack 5 for planting perennials and vegetables/herbs in our raised garden beds! Your hard work is very appreciated! ₊˚ʚ 🌱 ₊˚✧ ﾟ.

We still have two beds to fill if anyone has plants to split/share! Our hope is for these beds to become perennial wildflower/native species/pollinator gardens but we can also plant vegetables and herbs this summer.

We’ve added a daily drop-in option for Summer Fun Camp! ☀️

This option is perfect for families who may not need our three-day-per-week schedule but still want their child to enjoy some camp fun this summer — or for those unexpected child care needs that pop up along the way.

Right now, drop-in registration is available for the first two weeks of camp:
📅 June 2–4
📅 June 9–11

💲 Cost: $40 per day

Availability may vary from week to week depending on full-time camper attendance. To see current openings, check out our camp catalog: https://tinyurl.com/yc5avhtt
