Monday August 09, 2021 – Friday August 20, 2021 | Camrose and District Fish and Game Property: Camrose Wildlife Habitat Property

Magpie Nature Camp helps kids find joy in the great outdoors, teaching activities that empower them to connect to nature and find value in stewardship. Campers will learn about wilderness safety and awareness, edible and medicinal plants, fish and wildlife, and survival skills like shelter building, fire starting, and bow and arrow making. We will deepen our connection to nature, build confidence and resilience outdoors, learn ancient skills, and have fun!

Magpie Nature Camp will have 4 cohorts of campers (the same as 2020). Each cohort will run for a half day (morning or afternoon), for 5 days.  Cohorts keep our group numbers small, have kids of a similar age and ability together, and ensure our hands-on activities have appropriate  supervision.

Two children attending camp: $75.00 + $75.00 + $50.00 family membership fee = $200.00 total

Payments will be made prior to camp, in July.
