Camp Fire Central Oregon | Light the Fire Within

ExplOregon

Outdoor Camp Fire Adventures for Absolutely Incredible Kids!

 

This nature-based program, its activities, and its field trips offer a ton of fun and a chance to explore + in 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 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!

Thanks to Central Oregon Health Council, we have been able to expand our outdoor education programs, offering more of our high-quality camp experiences to kids across Central Oregon.
