Utilizing as much of Wayside’s beautiful 50-acre campus as possible, we’ll have plenty of outdoor time, including water days! Who knows, maybe we’ll even help some animals cool off with some outdoor bath time!
From creative projects to creating promotional videos for the animals, we’re sure that there will be something for everyone! Sign-up for one week or two, but be aware, space is limited!
Connection Week
This past year, it’s been more challenging than ever to connect with one another. That’s why this summer, we have a whole week dedicated to re-establishing that connection. This week, campers will forge bonds with one another (and animals!) through initiative games intended to strengthen communication skills and build trust while working toward a common goal. By weeks end, the goal is for campers to feel a boost of self-confidence in their ability to establish and maintain high-quality relationships with people and animals!
Empower Week
Times have been tough for a lot of people and animals, especially lately. It can be easy to feel hopeless and not know what to do or how to help. This week, campers will learn there is hope. Campers will be encouraged to collaborate, make decisions, and solve problems together. By weeks end, the goal is for campers to feel a boost of self-confidence and ultimately empowered in their ability to affect positive change in the world.
