Virginia Tech’s Reynolds Homestead summer camp offerings this year will include opportunities for children ranging from early elementary through high school. The day camps, held at the Homesstead in Critz, Virginia, will be offered in late June and July, and registration is open now.
The camp season starts June 24-27 with NatureNauts’ Discovery Camp. Local educator Adrienne Hiatt will offer hands-on learning experiences integrating science, technology, engineering, arts, and math through nature exploration. Students can expect to learn about scientific experimentation, environmental science, biodiversity, and sustainability, and exercise their skills in critical thinking, project planning, and creativity. Open to learners ages 9 to 13, or fourth to seventh grades, the camp is from 9 a.m. — 12 p.m. and costs $50 per camper.
From July 15-18, the Reynolds Homestead will host “Bugs Taking Over the World” art camp. This creative exploration of nature will dive into a world of imagination, with students dreaming up scenarios in which bugs are overtaking the world. Led by Grace Helms, campers will explore the importance of insects in the ecosystem through art projects, guided nature walks, and interactive learning sessions. A public reception will be held on Thursday, July 18 at 12 p.m. for friends and family to view the diverse art portfolio created during the week. Art camp will run from 9 a.m. — 12:30 p.m. and is open to ages 7-12. The cost is $50 per camper.
From July 22-26, the Reynolds Homestead is offering Young Women Trailblazers, an opportunity for rising tenth graders and up to explore careers and leadership while developing new skills and relationships. The Young Women Trailblazers program is designed to explore a broad range of careers and the tools needed to explore individual interests and skills to build a successful path forward.
