Summer Program
Ages 6-14
Our homeschool collaborative operates all year round, but we do have limited openings for families who want to jump in and “live the homeschool lifestyle” in the summer.
Weekly camp membership includes a weekly swimming beach trip, a weekly field trip, two healthy snacks and a nutritious lunch each day, as well as unlimited fluoride-free water.
A week of our ‘summer camp’ program is a great way to try out the school and see if our community would be a good fit for your family.
No two weeks are ever the same!
2025 Session Schedule
Our daily rhythm is such that our kids have plenty of time to opt in to the daily themed sessions, as well as have free time to create, explore, socialize, and visit with our animal friends during the day.
Camp this year is from 9-3pm,
MONDAY-TUESDAY-WEDNESDAY-THURSDAY.
We do not meet on Fridays.
June 30 – July 3

FARM & FOREST WEEK
Come experience the joys of a true Minnesota camp summer. Earn badges as you visit to swim at Square Lake, hike at William O’Brien State Park, tend and play with our farm animals (goats, chickens, rabbits), and learn forest school skills. Canoeing in our school pond will be on the docket…. as well as lots of camp crafts and projects!

WIZARDS and WARRIORS Week
A mash-up of two camper-requested weeks– Harry Potter themed activities (potions, care of magical creatures, herbology) AND our ever-popular CARDBOARD FORGE where kids have the opportunity to design and build their own cardboard armor and weapons– complete with an epic photo shoot on the last day.

SURVIVOR Week
Campers form two teams which will compete all week to earn points for the title of “AWS SURVIVOR”. Exciting physical and mental challenges (puzzles, riddles, and a full-property IDOL hunt) will let them explore the great outdoors while creating bonds with other campers that will be sure to last a lifetime. Our annual grand finale (weather permitting) is a canoe trip down the St. Croix River!
