A Residential Camp of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Ohio
Session 1
Adventure Camp – June 15 – 19
From first time campers to well experienced campers, Adventure Camp is fun for everyone. Campers enjoy hikes through wooded terrain that allows them to truly explore nature. Campers also enjoy listening to stories, arts and crafts, and lots of singing! Each camp session provides topics such as geology, stream studies, wildlife, and much more. Environmental Educators are on staff throughout the summer to accompany cabin groups on hikes and also to plan activities around fun science topics.

Find Your Way Hike
It is a great idea to use a map when you are out on a hike. Oftentimes, GPS does not work out in the woods so a map is a great tool to find your way when you are exploring.
