Canoe/Kayak Adventures - Summer Camp (Ages 10-12)

Program is Full
Embark on an exciting journey as a "navigator" in this adventure-packed camp! Learn to paddle kayaks and canoes through calm waters and creeks while exploring the beautiful waterways of Darke County and beyond. Each day promises exciting experiences, and we’ll cap off the week with an unforgettable lake-side tent camping experience!

Campers will wear life jackets (provided) whenever near or on the water. Be sure to dress for wet and muddy conditions, as well as off-trail exploration. Close-toed shoes are required for safety.

*Includes a one-night camping experience.
