COYOTE CAMP 2009 ~ Summer Day Camp

Sponsored by Earthways Foundation and Ocean Song Farm and Wilderness Center, Coyote Camp is a continuing legacy which has been inspired in part by the former Ocean Song summer program, Discovery Day Camp. Coyote Camp was founded with the intentions of helping to awaken and inspire the wild hearts and dreams of children and to cultivate a deeper sense of respect, awareness, and appreciation for the earth and all of our relations.

We invite you to share a space in our circle as we embark upon a playful adventure that will provide opportunities for experiential environmental education. Our wise and wily coyote mentors will cultivate a supportive and nurturing environment for children to learn, create, and grow! As we spend our days, exploring Ocean Song, a diverse ecosystem situated admist the magical coastal highlands of west Sonoma County, we will engage in such activities as:

• Wilderness Exploration
• Bird Language
• Swimming
• Wildcrafting
• Nature Games
• Music & Dance
• Organic Gardening
• Sustainable Living Skills
• Tracking
• Community Building
• Storytelling
• Creative Arts
