Nature Journaling Camp | Buttonwood Nature Center, Waynesboro

Tuesday July 16th, 2024 – Thursday July 18th, 2024 * 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM

For students completing grade 4 through 6.

During this 3-day camp, students will get in touch with nature through observation, recording what they see with writing and drawing, and learning about the science of what’s happening in nature while immersing themselves in the beauty of the natural world.

Through observation, awareness and attention to detail, students explore such things as animal tracks, seed pods, insects, wildlife, weather and all kinds of plant life. 

By committing observations to paper, campers deepen their connection to nature.

Journaling also captures the essence of the moment—the scent of pine, the crunch of earth underfoot, and the fresh air against your skin.

Each camper should bring a journal—a small notebook with blank paper works fine.

Students are encouraged to personalize their journal with cover decorations and their name.

Camp fee: $50 for members of Buttonwood Nature Center/The Institute, and $55 general public.
