The KPNC Adventure Camp brings students on a four-day, three-night adventure to some of the incredible natural and historic wonders that Alabama has to offer. All meals and lodging are included in the registration fee. The location for this year is the College of Forestry, Wildlife and Environment’s own Solon Dixon Center in Andalusia. This incredible, 5000-acre outdoor classroom, nestled in the Conecuh National Forest, has a world of amazing natural wonders for our campers to explore.
We’ll also explore south Alabama, venture on hikes through coastal plain and native longleaf ecosystems, go canoeing on a blackwater river, and visit the Turtle Point Nature Center for some fun and educational activities, including hunting for shark’s teeth! Campers will learn about nature, history, wildlife, industry, geology, archaeology, and more! In addition, campers will have the opportunity to swim, hike, climb, and explore!
Adventure Camp is for upcoming 6th through 8th graders and runs Mon through Thursday, July 14-17. Vans depart the Kreher Preserve & Nature Center (2222 N. College St) at 8:00 AM on July 14 and return at 4:30 PM on July 17.
Summer Adventure Camp is $500 ($450 for members) per camper for all three days and includes daily snacks and meals, transportation from the KPNC, lodging, all camp activities and entrance fees, a camp t-shirt, and a water bottle. Campers must be able to swim. A discount of 10% per camper is available for siblings living in the same household.
