Mission & Vision

Mission & Vision

BOAT CAMP Nature School is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to providing meaningful, nature smart, education outdoors to inspire lifelong connections to land and sea.

Three-Year Vision

By 2014, we will have a permanent home with land, and continued water access, that allows us to organically expand our programs to serve children and families in our greater Newburyport community.

Forest Kindergarten (Ages 4-6)

FourRock_f0470_01BOAT CAMP Nature School is excited to offer a new outdoor learning program for pre-school to kindergarten-aged children starting in October 2013. Our Little River Otters program will be modeled around German Waldkindergartens, in which all of our class time will be spent entirely outside!
