"Day Camp in a Box" takes you and your child "Down on the Farm" for the equivalent of a four day trip to camp! The 16 activities plus supplemental programs are designed to be delivered at a speed that works best for your farm! You can knock them out in a couple days or stretch camp out over a few weeks! As long as the camper and you are enjoying your trip to the farm together! Campers will make a bee house, magnetic slime, make and shoot a marshmallow cannon, learn about composting and farming, make their own scarecrow, do an obstacle course, scavenger hunt, and much more! Hands on activities will be supplemented with recorded videos along with online content when necessary. The best part about camp, campers will get to experience this amazing journey to the farm with their favorite Camp Counselor...YOU; at their favorite farm...your home! "Day Camp in a Box" will give you everything you need with the exception of a few household things that we will communicate as we get closer to camp. We anticipate boxes will be ready for pick up on June 20 in the following communities (Lafayette, West Lafayette, Kokomo, Monticello, DeMotte, Wabash, and Marion.) We will communicate the exact times and locations as we get closer to camp. "Day Camp in a Box" is open to all boys and girls going into K-5th grades. Those campers that are already in Cub Scouts will complete some of their rank requirements for the 2019-2020 and 2020-2021 school year depending on their current rank requirements. Campers that are not in Cub Scouts will still participate like everyone else just without getting credit for completed requirements. Register now, boxes are limited. Camp is $55 per camper if you want to pick up your own box at a site near nearest you or $70 per camper if you want us to ship your box to you. Registration ends June 7. See you down on the farm! -Farmer Bryon
