Summer Day Camp

No phones. No screens. Just kids discovering how much fun real life can be! Turtle Island Preserve is a place to unplug and reconnect — with nature and themselves.

Our Day Camp is designed for those campers who may not quite be ready for true “wilderness immersion” in our over night camps. This will be a wonderful introduction to Turtle Island and our teachings…and you will be immersed in nature, just able to be in your bed at night. It is a great first step to our regular Boys Camp.

Our mission & philosophy for Day Camp is the same as our overnight camp…to encourage personal growth in each camper. We do this by encouraging a connection to the natural world through exploration of our 1000+ acres and our natural history preserve.
