Camp Counselor Training
Familiar faces and new faces. We spent the afternoon preparing for the Upstream Downstream Connection summer camps.
How can you protect something if you don’t feel connected or understand it? Our summer campers do water testing, take the 40 Gallon Water Challenge, use microscopes and other scientific equipment: hands-on, inquiry based learning. They learn to snorkel and kayak, participate in service learning through land, river and beach clean-ups, and get outdoors!
The UpStream DownStream Connection summer camps trace the path of fresh water to the coast.
