Bend Summer Camps
Why choose a TrackersBEND camp this summer?
1) See extraordinary things and have real adventures Your kids do things in our camps they don’t get the chance to do almost anywhere else. In our programs we might build hidden villages in the woods, make fire by friction, weave baskets, fish, practice martial arts and grow organic gardens.
2) Spend the entire day outside in amazing natural landscapes Our programs take place in the forests, high desert, and mountains of the Bend area. The woods and waters are our boundless classrooms.
3) Let kids be kids So much of our learning comes from joyful play and following natural curiosities. In TrackersBEND programs we let kids follow their natural curiosities, gently and playfully guiding rather than forcing their learning process.
4) Trust our awesome staff Trackers camp staff are highly skilled and trained outdoor educators in the field of nature awareness, ecology and wilderness skills. We each bring a wealth of life experience and training in arts that are lost to our modern world. Read more about our outdoor education staff
5) Enjoy our low instructor to camper ratio We realize that nature connection is best guided with caring human connection. Plus, for every 10 campers ages 4-10 we feature 1 lead instructor with intensive outdoor education experience and 1 teen camper-counselor who is actively training leadership skills in our Teen Outdoor Leadership Course.
