The camp will follow the theme of Penn State Extension’s new children’s book, Brooke Meets a Stream Doctor featuring Dr. Watt R Shedd.
Campers will learn about the environment, water resources management, and complete a stream study in Dellinger Run.
Activities include Meaningful Watershed Educational Experiences focused on the water cycle and watersheds; physical, biological, and chemical stream studies; what constitutes a healthy stream; and participate in a service project.
The event will take place from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. daily.
The cost for registration is $175 per camper, which includes daily snacks, and all activity materials.
Participants should pack a non-refrigerated lunch and a water bottle each day. They should also wear weather-appropriate clothing as we will be outside for the duration of camp, sun protection, a hat, and bug spray (if preferred). Wear shoes that can get wet or pack waterproof boots for stream activities.
