Outdoor Camp Fire Adventures for Absolutely Incredible Kids!
Explore + Oregon = ExplOregon!
In a variety of half-day, full-day, and week-long camps, Camp Fire kids discover environmental “gems” right in our own back yard and some of the amazing things our area has to offer. Think field trips to local streams and waterways, geology, human history and more!
At ExplOregon, kids stretch their legs, brains, and passion for the outdoors. Together, we turn that time outside of the classroom—or during long summer days—into exciting adventures outdoors. We learn more about nature, our impacts on it, and its impacts on us!
Campers jump in the Camp Fire van and head off for afternoon of super-cool, nature-based field trips. Inspired by Camp Fire programs from the 1980s and rooted in environmental awareness, appreciation and preservation, we reinvented the program to make it relevant for today’s kids and times. Our goals: to help youth feel more comfortable in the outdoors, care more about the outdoors, and learn how to take care of the outdoors, starting right here in our region.
Join our expedition to boost connection with nature, others and yourself! Only 12 spots available… grab yours today!
