About PEEC's Nature Adventure Camp

Our nature adventure camp is designed to help campers grow and explore while under the guidance of staff.  Our staff are instructors, interns, and counselors who are hired based on experience and trained in childhood behavior, special needs, risk management, and other camp-related topics.  All PEEC staff members undergo background checks before working with children.
