Each week we look for 3 Jr. Helpers to join our Adventurers! There is no contribution request for Jr. Helpers, as they contribute by helping. If you have a child you feel would be well suited to lead a group of campers and who would like to join us this summer, we would be happy to hear from you!

We plan to visit a variety of farms, such as horse farms, livestock farms and kalo farms. Our itinerary also includes trips to aquariums, sea life parks, zoos, beaches and botanical gardens, where we'll engage in arts, crafts, music, dance, journaling, and—most importantly—fun!
Outdoor experiential learning revitalizes our connection to the land (aina) and the Hawaiian spirit. It promotes sustainability in farming and raises awareness about water conservation while fostering community involvement through service and responsible stewardship.
A Camp Calendar will list all daily locations, packing lists as well as information on whether family members can join, as we would love to have you whenever able! (costs vary by location.)
