This 5½-day-long clinic is designed for instructors at day camps, resident camps, outdoor education centers, docents and seasonal staff at nature centers and national and state parks, and for select students from the University of New Haven (for which they receive academic credit). Our goal is to facilitate better programming and instruction in a wide variety of camp and outdoor situations and settings.
