Special Camps
Four Day Pioneer CampPioneer Camp - FOUR DAY CAMP
June 3, 4, 5, 7 8AM - 1PM (5 hours each day) $380 for 4 day camp - includes materials Ages 6-12 (Drop off only) Step back in time and experience life in the mid-1800s. Kids will have an immersive farm experience that could include old time skills like making butter, and learning period games and music. To get in the spirit of the camp please wear period clothes. Here are some ideas: leather shoes, long skirts, shawls and bonnets or scarves, button shirts ( no t-shirts) , if possible suspenders and hats (no ballcaps). Please send lunch in baskets or wrapped in cloth. Lunch suggestions- jerky, dried fruit, bread, milk. Drinks should be in a mason jar. We prefer no plastics or nylons at this camp. Day One Overview: Today, with the help of Living Historians we’ll understand how the native Americans first lived in this area. Gradually the mountain men/trappers became familiar with the riches the plains and mountains had to offer. Finally, the settlers began to push West to fulfill their dreams of owning land following the Oregon Trail. Day Two Overview: Let's recreate an Oregon Trail emigrant experience. We'll begin by caring for all our farm animals before we say good-bye to head West. After making hard tack for our journey, we’ll have to decide what to take and what to leave. We'll walk/ride the trail, singing to make the long journey go more quickly and when finally we stop for a rest we'll snack on dried apples and water. Once we get to our destination, we'll need to cook a meal and then even though we're very tired we'll play pioneer children's’ games and dance. Day Three Overview: There is a lot to accomplish to make our new homes in Colorado. We will need to keep our farm animals healthy by feeding and watering them. We could make some applesauce for lunch or churn some butter. We can enjoy period activities like making corn cob people, washing with a washboard,harrowing the garden, splitting firewood, singing, dancing rounds and reels, and playing period games. Day Four Overview: What was it like to go to school in the pioneer days of the mid-1800's? Come find out. Before school starts we'll need to do our farm chores. Then we'll come running when the school bell rings. We'll sing, have a spelling bee, cipher on our slates, and of course penmanship and work on our recitations. Recess is where we'll play period games, like marbles, cat's in the cradle, three-legged races, and sack races. We’ll ride our horses to and from school. |
