The Village of the Ancients is a summer camp that weaves the power of myth, nature skills, and ecology together into an unforgettable experience. This weeklong adventure gives kids a chance to explore the world of interactive story, wilderness skills, and ecology. Kids will participate in a theater camp where they live as part of a village. By learning the skills of edible/medicinal plants, bird language, animal tracking, and wilderness skills and crafts, children work together to solve a collective mystery regarding the destiny of their village.
