Session 1: June 24-July 14 
Session 2: July 22- August 11

We realize that planning around 3 week camps is difficult for families, so feel free to sign-up for individual weeks that work for you. Camp will be 9-5 on weekdays, but we may be doing some overnights or weekend trips.  

BASE CAMP:
We will be putting up 2 yurts on the Bristol Recreation Fields, next to the gazebo and the HUB Teen Center.  We'll build a fire pit as part of the first week of camp and create our base camp.  We'll spend much of our time building, creating and composing on-site, but we will also be heading out onto the trail, up mountains, to neighboring farms and into rivers.
  
WHAT YOU NEED:
A day pack, a water bottle, a bike helmet, good hiking/biking shoes, layered clothing and a rain coat (and we are happy to help find any of these things - let us know!).  You may need a sleeping bag/pad if you will be there for any of our overnights (to be announced).  If you have one (or can borrow one), please bring a mountain bike, and feel free to bring musical instruments! You will also need a sense of adventure, good humor, creative juice and a willingness to try new things, but don't worry, if you don't have them now, you will by the time we are done!

Cost: $200 per week
Note: We are determined to make this camp available to all, regardless of financial ability - there are “camperships” available! Please see our website for more information.

*Note about camper age:
Camp is geared toward ages 13-16 but we are willing to take campers that are outside this age range.  Just be aware that some topics that we discuss (such as gender, sexuality, adolescent health, racial justice, social issues, etc) and activities we do that involve physical exertion will be difficult for younger campers.  

* Adjustments and discounts will be applied during checkout if applicable. *
