ABOUT THE SUMMER ADVENTURE PLAY CAMPS
Summer 2018 marks the launch of this new program for us which we are happy to say, is a partner project to our Summer Playwork Understudy Program led by Luke Sutton, a professional playworker from Wales, UK.
​
Our summer camps are authentic to our approach of allowing children/youth time and space to explore, build, deconstruct, create and dictate their experience while being supported by adults on site. When kids become repeat visitors they gain the most from an adventure playground! They can continue where they left off the day before on any creation they are working on as well as pursue social connections with the other players.
This is not like other camps. The only structured activities taking place on the site come from the children themselves. However we gather, purchase, and seek out materials to help fulfill the kids' imagined visions or offer new and exciting directions/materials for them to pursue or play with. We also staff our site with professional and understudy playworkers who are specially trained in how to mediate a space where the level of adulteration is minimal and child-led pursuits are fully supported. The playworkers are there to keep the kids safe from hazards, support their play by responding to those needs, and support the kids as they take their own risks in learning and exploring.
