Wildwood Camp: Residential Camp - Carson Unit Girls

Description

At Wildwood, the environment is fun and noncompetitive: each camper is an important part of the community and is valued and respected for their interests and contributions. When campers arrive at Wildwood, they participate in a Nature Groups (NGs) activity each morning, allowing time to discover field, forest, and wetland habitats and the intriguing behaviors of birds, insects, mammals, invertebrates, and more through hands-on investigation. In the afternoon, campers will choose from a variety of Discovery Group (DG) activities, so every day brings new experiences. Later in the day during Open Activity Time (OATs), campers can choose from a number of informal activities on the spot. Every day, campers have opportunities to grow in independence with the support of the entire Wildwood community.

Wildwood units are designed to create a peer-focused community. Campers live in rustic cabins within a unit (a cluster of 3-4 cabins). One counselor is assigned to each tent of 4-6 campers. Each unit has a leader who is available for camper and staff support. Each unit has toilet facilities and centrally located showers just down the path.
