Critter Camp is a mini-camp experience for boys and girls that have completed the 1st or 2nd grade. The three-day / two-night program introduces future campers to Wekiva Youth Camp with age-appropriate sessions in Nature, Crafts & Swimming and allows them to join with older campers at the Flag Circle and meals in the Dining Hall. Critter Camp happens right in the middle of a week of regular camp. For many Critters, this is their first time away from home so care is taken to keep them busy and stimulated as they learn about Nature, Swim (or splash) in the pool, enjoy relevant Craft activities, and gather around the campfire to make s’mores. Our experienced Counselors are trained to handle these Critters as they “live” together in rustic cabins, participate in the Flag Circle, and see first hand how the older Campers enjoy the magic and beauty of Wekiva Youth Camp.
