Camp Description:
The Green River Preserve is a non-profit, non-academic natural science summer camp for gifted and motivated learners. Campers enjoy a 3400-acre wildlife preserve with trout streams, waterfalls, swimming and fishing lakes, and spectacular woodlands in the mountains of North Carolina. They have opportunities to participate in camping, canoeing, swimming, archery, painting, pottery, crafts, rock climbing, fly fishing, and fencing. Our camp is coed, noncompetitive, and purposefully small. We use wilderness skills, creative arts, and the exhilaration of outdoor fun and discovery to inspire young minds. Our campers enjoy the social and physical benefits of a nurturing summer camp and the joy and wonder of hands-on learning.
