John Denver's Windstar Foundation Presents...
 |
Windstar's
EARTHcamp began in 2000 as an environmentally based summer day camp for children
in the Roaring Fork Valley of Snowmass, Colorado. Since that time it has expanded
to cities across the country and gone international with a camp in Jerusalem,
Israel. EARTHcamp's unique curriculum now includes camps with changing themes
and activities, an after school program and a new multigenerational camp, designed
to give families time to discover the healing and bonding power that comes from
spending time in nature.
We
at Windstar believe, like many educational experts, that nature holds an important
part in the health of humanity, no matter what our age. EARTHcamp invites us to
return to nature, inspires us to new viewpoints of how we live on our planet and
above all, asks us to find our place within the ecosystem we call Earth! |
GOALS:
EARTHcamp
was designed to inspire us to care for our world:
By
presenting nature in an active, creative and hands-on manner By highlighting
the necessity for biodiversity By offering a correlated curriculum of science,
games, visual arts, theater arts and music
| MISSION:
It is our intent that everyone who attends Windstar Foundation's EARTHcamp
will develop a love and respect for the Earth that will last a lifetime.
