The nature program at CKMinisink is a favorite for many campers, and one reason why is that there are 500 acres to explore! The nature program offers many different types of activities…. learning to build a one match fire, shelter building, bird watching, becoming aware of the plants and animals who have made CKM their home, hiking, outdoor cooking, sleeping out under the stars…
In addition, with increased attention on “the greening of CKMinisink”, campers help the entire camp community become responsible for conservation… I’m sure you are now very aware of the phrase “reduce, re-use, recycle”! We have even spent time developing simple solar ovens for baking AND we will continue to develop this program.
This popular outdoor program continues to evolve under the leadership of Kaley Odland, who is returning to camp for his seventh summer on our staff!
As with all of our program activities, campers choose the nature activities that they want to participate in.
Are there activities that you would like us to add to our nature program? Kaley is always open to suggestions! Just click here to send us your ideas.
Enjoy your day!

Hello There!
Hey There! I hope that everyone is having a great 2009 so far!!! We just had, what I like to call birthdaypalooza in our house! Liam turned 1 on Jan. 10th and Sophie turned 3 on Jan. 12th. We had a fun time celebrating both birthdays!! And then next week is our dog, Jack's birthday!! My husband and I joke that if you want to live in our house the only requirement is that you have a January birthday! hahaha.
So, now that we are into 2009 we are in full swing with tours and camp fairs! Camp fairs are really neat. When we go to a fair we get to meet staff from other camps and then we get a chance to talk about camp to families that are trying to find a camp for their child. If you know of anyone that is interested in CK and would like to meet us at a camp fair, the dates and locations are listed on our website. Or if they would prefer a tour, our dates are listed on our website as well. We would love to show them around!
I wish you all a happy and safe 2009 filled with good times, great accomplishments and laughter!!! Until next time- Tricia
