Teen Kayak Camp on the St. Croix River

Join us this summer on the St. Croix River for a true WILD experience.

Our camp is located right on the St. Croix!

Day One:  Meet your fellow campers and learn the basics of kayaking using a nearby quiet cove on the river.  We will also learn how to use a GPS and find hidden treasure around camp.

Day Two:  Visit a cave and swim from islands as we practice our new skills along the river.

Day Three:  Downstream paddle from Taylor’s Falls to Osceola!  Off-site for the day we paddle past rock cliffs, eagles, and have a picnic along the way.

Day Four:  Challenge Day!  We will test our new kayak and GPS skills with a variety of obstacle courses on the river to see how much we’ve learned this week.  We will finish our week with prizes and an award ceremony.

Extra fun - Bring your swimsuit and towel as we will be swimming every day.
