Insufficient enrollment or emergency cancellations by the instructor are examples of why a program offering could be canceled. Organizers also reserve the right to substitute instructors if necessary.

Sessions offered:
  • Kayaking
    Come experience an interpretive kayak trip on flat water. This will be a great opportunity to become more confident on the water while learning about your surroundings. We will provide the kayak, personal flotation device and paddle. 
  • Archery/Atlatl
    This program will teach the basics of both archery and atlatl. Come and learn about the historical significance of atlatls, bows and arrows and shooting techniques. After the instruction portion, participants will put their new skills to use with hands-on practice using archery equipment and atlatls. Participants will receive personal instruction and adequate time to practice what they learn.
  • Nature Photography
    Do you love nature? Have you ever wanted to capture photographs of that perfect sunrise or beautiful flower, but you’re unsure how to line up a shot or are confounded by the buttons and knobs on your camera? Beginner and amateur photographers, please bring your camera (yes, even a camera phone), along with its manual, to learn how to turn a snapshot into a masterpiece. Once you've learned a few tips and tricks, the course will move outside so you can put your newly-gained knowledge to the test. Cameras will be available for those who need one.
