NEOC supports the curiosity Wolves — our Middle School-age campers — have and the independence and social connection they crave. Activities encourage them to take risks, enjoy practicing and mastering concepts and skills, and explore trust. All of this is within a framework that supports and builds self-awareness and self-confidence. Small group sizes ensure that counselors will know each camper in a personalized way!
Wolves are given opportunities to be leaders in our community and mentor fellow campers of all ages.
No matter how many weeks a wolf chooses to spend at NEOC, they leave with greater confidence in themself and ready to advocate for the natural world around them! They enjoy an immersion and independence that is typical of an overnight camp experience, with the joy of sharing camp stories at home with their family each night.

My son was really enjoyed canoeing and woodworking. Thanks for calling us after he had an incident with another camper. It was clear the counselor handled this well!"

From the beginning of the emails that came in before camp and through daily communication during and when my daughter was sick for a day, I was overly impressed with how everything was handled. My kids were mad at me for arriving early on their last day (10 min). They LOVED this camp and wanted to return immediately. They told me little parts of each day whether it was something they did or something funny that happened. All of the counselors were so nice. The attention to detail from the patches to the waving upon arrival, and opening doors for pick-up and drop-off were appreciated and noticed. Bravo!!!!"

The camp counselors were all so respectful and kind, setting the example for all of the campers! The canoe experiences were the best parts of the day for both kids. My son also enjoyed playing soccer with the group and the end of every day."

This was my daughter's 4th summer at NEOC and each summer year she likes it even more. At her age, going into 8th grade, to have her excited for camp is amazing! She is excited for the LIT program next summer."

My kids loved having choice time in the afternoon. It was a time when they could decide what they wanted to do, and be with their siblings if they wanted to be."

My son's time at NEOC was legendary. Every day I picked him up he was smiling, dirty, and full of stories about all of his fun activities and the amazing counselors. He told me over and over again it was the best camp he’d ever been to and at 13 that’s a a tall order because he’s been so many over the past 8 years. He loved it so much we added two weeks! His patch is proudly displayed in his room. He wants to return next year and honestly part of the reason why is because he thinks of NEOC as a little summer family. Congratulations for doing what you do. These kids feel it and appreciate it, and I do too as a parent. They are only young once and you help them rejoice in what it means to be young and carefree and full of wonder. Thank you!!!!"

My son has greatly enjoyed camp so far — all the outdoor activities, the counselors, and making new friends. He specially mentioned the hikes, playing "camouflage" in the woods, and archery as a special highlight."

A favorite part of the day of mine is when we do sign-ups. It is interesting to see campers of all ages interact with each other in their favorite things and playing games. Making things with other campers that are not just in my group is fun. I also really like canoeing. It is very peaceful and enjoyable and I can watch wildlife closer then usual. Making things is great too. I especially liked learning how to make slime. And it is cool that the compass, binoculars, and candles are usable. Going into the trails are amazing as well. Learning how to shelter-build is a great skill to have. Last but not least, I am very grateful for learning how to make friendship bracelets."

I loved, loved, loved the slower paced, all outdoors, and no screen or electronics orientation for my son. Brilliant! And loved Elm Bank — a glorious place for a camp. Our family had a great experience."

I love the positive feedback my sons receive from their counselors on their way to the car after camp. It means a lot to my oldest, who is very hard on himself. I can't believe the team keeps the fun going outside all day. It's so great for my boys to be away from screens! Archery is a big favorite ... Show full review

His next day was so much better and just kept getting better from there. By Friday, he was rating it 4.5 out of 5 stars and saying he'd come back next year!"
