YMCA Camp Lincoln Outdoor Education
School Group Programs
Textbooks share information with children, but a hands-on outdoor education experience at Camp Lincoln brings science to life. In partnership with schools, Camp Lincoln facilitates growth in awareness, understanding, appreciation and respect of our natural world. Students can enjoy trail-based learning, emotional growth on the challenge course and hands-on science activities, which act as a springboard for further exploration in and out of the classroom.
Schools can choose from a selection of activities to supplement their academic goals:
- Nature Hikes
- Arts & Crafts
- Ecology (Forest & Pond)
- Orienteering
- Initiative Games
- Team-building
- High & Low Ropes (Challenge) Courses
- Climbing Wall
- Archery
- Group Games
- Swimming (summer)
- Boating (summer)
- Snowshoeing (winter)
- Animal tracking (winter)
School programming is available for one day, multiple days or overnight. All students require a completed and signed release form to participate in ropes courses.
