The 2023 Monument Days with The Crest’s Nature Day Camp have recently concluded an unforgettable season. The program spanned seven weeks and served about 150 students aged 5 to 12. These days provided the perfect backdrop for young explorers to forge connections with nature, engage in captivating discussions, and cultivate collaborative skills. Participants were not only immersed in the beauty of the outdoors but also had the opportunity to deepen their understanding of the environment through hands-on activities and educational sessions. The diverse range of age groups allowed for the exchange of unique perspectives.

This program holds immense value as it enables children to spend more time in nature, fostering a lifelong appreciation for the world around them. The increased duration spent amidst natural surroundings has been correlated with enhanced physical and mental well-being, the nurturing of curiosity, and the fortification of critical thinking skills. As the children hiked through trails, observed local wildlife, and participated in interactive workshops, it helped them develop a sense of interconnectedness with the ecosystem while learning information that will be highly relevant to their futures.

Looking forward, we are eagerly anticipating an ongoing collaboration with The Crest, envisioning further growth and refinement to the program. Our goal is to continue inspiring and nurturing the next generation of nature enthusiasts and environmental stewards.
