B Camp (without Focus Programs)
Entering 3rd and 4th Grades

DC 1: June 17-21                  DC 8: Aug. 5-9
DC 2: June 24-28 DC 9: Aug. 12-16

Day Camp with Focus Programs
$430

Entering 3rd and 4th Grades

Focus programs give B Campers the opportunity to focus on their favorite part of the farm or try something new.  Focus programs take place during the morning or afternoon of each day while the rest of the day is filled with swimming and choice activities like arts and crafts or visiting with the animals.  These campers have the same opportunity to enjoy the Thursday overnight, and daily timing parallels traditional day camp.

All of the following programs are offered during focus program sessions.  Please choose one when registering.

Cows & Cookies
Come learn how to bake cookies in a wood fired oven!  We’ll turn milk into butter, grind flour and even visit the chickens for some eggs.  Then we’ll bake cookies with these farm ingredients.  On Friday we’ll wake up early to milk the cow and then eat and share our tasty treats.

Friends of a Feather 
Fluff up your feathers and get ready for a week of fun with the chickens of Hidden Villa! We'll design a poultry palace, prepare a feathered king’s favorite feast, and learn why chickens can make great back-yard neighbors and help our gardens grow. Cock-a-doodle-do!

Wild Things
Look forward to a week of wild times around the farm. We'll build forts, look at animal skulls and their unique adaptations, practice the art of invisibility in the forest and design our own wild animals. Let the WILD times begin!

Flocks of Fun!
We won’t be counting sheep in our sleep this week… we’ll be up close and personal with some of the new lambs and their mama ewes!  Come find out what’s to love about these wooly animals while we practice herding, throw a sheep party (farm style), and hand-make some cool crafts.

Goat Kids!
Come spend time with the friendliest animals on the farm!  We’ll take a goat on a hike and learn about their skills on trail.  In the kitchen we’ll make goat cheese and fondue for a feast.  Then on Friday, we’ll wake up early just in time to milk a goat!
