This spring, make our camps your outdoor classroom!

We are opening up two of our camp properties to homeschool families, groups and coops. Spend a day (or many) outside in nature with zero walls on your classroom!

When: Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout April and May; camp will be open from 9:00 AM-4:00 PM

Where: Camp Kiwanis (Marine on the St. Croix) & Camp Rum River (Ramsey)

Cost: $5 per person. We also have limited indoor spaces as an optional add on. $30 per building.

Activities: Each group will receive a dedicated outdoor space to use as their home base, with picnic tables. The whole camp is available to you to hike, wander and utilize for lesson plans and learning. All groups will have access to indoor bathrooms and places to fill water bottles. Everyone should bring their own bag lunch, or make plans to cook their own food outdoors.

Optional add-on activities: Each group will have the opportunity to add one of the following programs each date with a Camp Northern Star Guide. You can select these during registration and the Guide will work with your group and others on the day of the event to schedule this activity.
