Surviving the Wild: Pioneer Camp
Advertisement
Campers will step back in time as they explore Kentucky’s heritage through hands-on adventures at Blackacre’s 1790s pioneer farm and surrounding natural areas—including ponds, forests, and open fields. Each day is filled with nature investigations, pioneer crafts, creative arts, and classic outdoor games.
Campers will even meet a special guest from the 18th century who brings history to life! Pioneer activities may include candle making, butter churning, traditional songs, and more.
Throughout the week, children will enjoy daily interactions with our farm animals, nature hikes, garden explorations, and time to explore our historic barn and homestead.
New this year, two daily snacks are included and are thoughtfully selected to provide energy for active camp days, with a mix of healthier options and fun treats.
It’s a week of imagination, discovery, and old-fashioned fun.
Age: 5-12
Date: June 15-19
Time: 9:00 am – 4:00 pm
Cost: $275
Additional Lunch Option: Mon/Wed: Chicken Nuggets, Tues/Thurs: Ham/Turkey or PBJ Sandwich, Friday: Pizza Party. Our sides include a variety of chips, GoGurt, and fresh fruit. $50 per camper.
Registration opens January 7 for members. For more details and to register, go to VisitBlackacre.org
