Types of Camps

3 Years - 1st Grade

Ducklings

Days at NEOC are designed to support the social, emotional, and physical growth of our youngest campers, within a safe and supportive framework that encourages their comfort in exploring the natural world, an active lifestyle, and an ease in making friends.

2nd - 5th Grades

Squirrels & Otters

Campers experience days that are filled with exploration, projects, multiple choice periods based on personal interests, and much, much more! A camp culture of inclusion and appreciation allows for friendships to blossom and for campers to mentor one another.
