Time is running out. Don't let your child miss the best environmental experience of thier young lives!!!! Sunship Earth Environmental Adventure Camp for Young People Sunship Earth is an exciting, environmental adventure experience for young people ages 10-12. It is a weeklong sleepover camp run this summer by the Halifax Regional Adventure Earth Centre on a beautiful lake in the Windsor area. It is outdoor adventure and fun, with a focused purpose - to help young people develop a strong positive relationship to the natural world and understand the basic ecological operating principles of the planet. Their waking hours are spent engaged in a non-stop series of outdoor activities - from stalking mice as a coyote to sneaking into a giant leaf as a spy to learn the secret of photosynthesis. The final stage challenges them to examine the environmental impact of their own habits, and make a commitment to change something to help the earth. There are also traditional fun camp activities like swimming, canoeing, and campfires every day. Sunship Earth runs July 21-26, and July 28-August 2, 2002. Want to know more?
