All-Terrain Learning Adventures (ATLAS) Summer Camp!

Embark on a journey of self-discovery and nature exploration at the Southeast Land Trust (SELT) of New Hampshire's All-Terrain Learning Adventures (ATLAS) Summer Camp! Designed for adventurers aged 9-12, this week long experience promises an unforgettable blend of outdoor fun, wild play, and social-emotional wellness.

Camp Highlights:

• Dates: STAY TUNED FOR SUMMER 2025!

• Ages: 9 to 12 years

What to Expect: 

Wild Play Adventures: Dive into the wonders of outdoor play, fostering creativity, resilience, and teamwork. From building forts to nature-inspired games, campers can expect a safe space to explore their natural surroundings with the comfort of their peers as well as trained and supportive adults.

Exploration of Local Wild Spaces: Immerse yourself in the beauty of New Hampshire's natural landscapes. In addition to exploring Burley Farms, our campers will go paddling on the Lamprey River, spend a day at Jenness State Beach, and go swimming at UNH.

Social and Emotional Wellness: Guided by experienced outdoor educators and counselors, our camp focuses on building essential social and emotional skills like assertive communication, empathetic listening, and mindfulness tools to support their mental wellness. Utilizing expressive outlets, like painting and writing as well as more active ones like yoga and cooperative games, campers will be encouraged to reflect on their own thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, while also being part of a community.
