Environmental education just got a whole lot more FUN!

The first Camp in the Vancouver area to focus on leadership and sustainability for youth!

 
The second exciting summer of FUN Camps is here! Friends Uniting for Nature (FUN) Camps are a non-profit, summer leadership program for 8-16 year olds, focused on providing environmental education through fun, hands-on activity. For youth aged 13-16 we are offering a Peer Leader Program! The programs will be held in the Penthouse of the UBC Graduate Student Centre, with the majority of the curriculum being delivered outdoors. Camps run weekly from July 6th to August 28th. Camps run Monday – Friday, 9am-4pm. Registration is now open at www.funcamps.ca and space is limited. A limited number of scholarships may be available on a case-by-case basis, if financial need is demonstrated.

 

The FUN curriculum will focus on:

 

• activity: students will learn through activities such as bike maintenance workshops, solar oven and car construction, arts and crafts, hiking, nature exploration and sports

• personal development: students will build confidence and the ability to pass their knowledge forward through activities such as drama, daily sketching and journaling in nature and leadership training workshops
