Raven Camp
Raven Camp makes its home amidst 200 acres of some of the most spectacular and diverse land in the Hudson Valley. The land borders the Shawanghunk Ridge and Mohonk Preserve and features beautiful woodland, rock outcroppings and cliffs, with the Coxing Kill stream tumbling over waterfalls and rockslides on its way north towards Wild Earth’s Kestrel Camp.
At Raven Camp our day begins by giving thanks in a big circle. After a few songs and silly movement games to get us into our bodies, we’ll split up into clans for the day to play amongst the trees and stream, build forts in the leaves, work on wilderness skills, wander the land, and work on service projects that tend and beautify the land.
At the end of the day, with sticks in our hair, mud between our toes and smiles on our faces, we’ll return to the big group circle, and share stories from our day.
Raven Camp is where your child will:
- Practice a variety of wilderness skills and native technology.
- Practice awareness, quiet-mind, telling the story of their day, animal forms, curiosity, exploration, service, and gratitude.
- Face personal and group challenges tailored to build self-confidence, group unity, and self-awareness.
- Build comfort and competency in the outdoors.
