Camp Explore

By Johnica Morrow

Last week the station experienced a flurry of young faces from nearby communities. Middle school-aged children were running around learning about soils, water, and all the things that live in them. This was for a week-long camp called "Camp Explore", which is a part of both Project Wet and Project Wild through the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's Environmental Studies program. The camp was led by environmental studies majors working under the direction of Sara Cooper. Sara is an academic adviser and instructor for the School of Natural Resources.

The campers came to CPBS during the day for activities rather than staying here on campus. Our awesome kitchen staff provided campers with yummy snacks like homemade granola bars, clementines, and Lucky Charms treats. The week of learning and fun concluded with a field trip. Below are some photos of campers enjoying their interactions with the environment.
