Tom Denney Nature Camp
The Bolton Conservation Trust’s co-educational summer day camp is a unique camp experience that offers six one week sessions of fun and learning in the beautiful natural setting of Bolton's Bower Springs conservation area. The Tom Denney Nature Camp was founded in 1976 and is sponsored by the Trust. Our dedicated and enthusiastic staff supports Bolton’s commitment to environmental education and to kids. The goal of our camp is to create a safe, enjoyable outdoor learning experience that provides opportunities for children to learn about themselves and develop understanding, respect and responsibility for the environment while making new friends, taking on new challenges and most of all having fun! In addition to science and "The WOW of nature" program, areas and activities include arts & crafts, group games in the field and woods, songs, stories, special study groups, mystery animal, magic spot, building a city, hiking, free-choice time, campfires, exploring, building a shelter, splashing, swimming and more. There is so much to enjoy and learn. There is also an older campers program with an overnight, a boating component, team building activities, more advanced wilderness enjoyment/survival and nature conservation skills. When in high school campers can become Counselors in Training.
