A Camp for Kindling Fires, Igniting Passions, and Creating Together A place for teens to come together from different backgrounds, with different skills, passions, and dreams to solve problems, create and be empowered. It is also a place for science, ecology, art, society, music, hiking, woodworking, metal working, mountain bike riding, building fires, swimming, nutrition, and pushing our minds and bodies to do things that we didn’t think we could do. It is about forming a safe, supportive place for youth to explore and express themselves. It is about finding out what we are good at and appreciating what others can do. It is about being part of our local community and the global society. It is about helping neighbors and reaching out to people at the other side of the world. And, it is about being here, in the mountains of Vermont, doing really fun things together while we are learning and growing and becoming.

Monday-Friday, 9-5 with some overnights and weekend activities. Base camp at the HUB Teen Center in Bristol.

Cost: $600 per session Note: We are determined to make this camp available to all, regardless of financial ability - there are “camperships” available! Please see our website for more information.
