CincyNature Summer Camp

CincyNature summer camps are week-long, nature day camps for children and teens, ages 3 through 13. Camps take place from June through August at our two sites: Rowe Woods in Milford and Long Branch Farm & Trails in Goshen.

Children challenge their minds and bodies while using their imaginations and creativity in a natural setting. Each camp offers unique, age-appropriate activities introducing children to exciting outdoor adventures in a safe and friendly environment. Fresh air, hands-on activities, close encounters with animals and plants, and increased knowledge of the natural world help build confidence, passion, and knowledge about the environment.

• Low camper to staff ratio.
• Camps focus on a variety of nature-based topics.
• Highly trained staff, including a camp director to ensure quality.

About Our Camps

Campers

Campers explore the natural world outdoors and should be able to move themselves along gravel and wood chipped trails, up and down hills, across boardwalks, and over flat and uneven ground with minimal assistance. Campers interact with peers in collaborative activities and games. To ensure safety for both campers and staff, each camper should be capable of maintaining appropriate self-control in social situations.

We’re happy to make reasonable accommodations for children with special needs, depending on their requirements. Parents and guardians with questions regarding the ability of camp staff to meet a child’s needs should contact Bekah Cohen, camp director, at rcohen@cincynature.org or (513) 831-1711, ext. 137.

Camp T-Shirts

For Summer 2021, white camp t-shirts with the CincyNature Camp logo are available for purchase for $10 through our camp registration system at the time of check out. The camp and t-shirt order must take place by Friday, May 1, 2021. Camp t-shirts will not be available for purchase after May 1 OR you may send a plain white t-shirt with your camper on the first day of camp.

Cancellations and Transfer Policies

All cancellation requests must be completed online by logging into your CincyNature Camp registration account (UltraCamp) and canceling your camp reservation. In order to receive a refund, the cancellation must be received online by 9 am two weeks prior to the start of camp. 

• All cancellations are subject to a $50 administrative fee per camp per camper. 
• Cancellations made with less than two weeks’ notice will not be refunded. 
• Transfers from one camp into another are considered a cancellation and are subject to the $50 administrative fee per camp per camper. It is the registrant’s responsibility to re-register the camper online. 

Campers on our wait lists get priority when a camp spot becomes available. Campers registered for the wait list will be contacted by email in the order their registrations were received. Please provide a preferred email address so you can be reached if an opening becomes available. If registration does not take place within 24 hours of the email contact, the next camper on the list will automatically be contacted. If the camp opening is within one week of the camp start date, the 24-hour response policy will not apply.

Attending CincyNature Camp with a Same-Age Friend or Sibling

Children will be divided into small groups for camp. Groups will be preassigned and children will be separated into groups on the first day of camp according to age. If your child has a friend or relative registered in their camp and you wish to place them in the same trail group, please indicate this on your online health form in your UltraCamp account under “additional information” and we will do our best to accommodate as long as you indicate this TWO WEEKS PRIOR to the start of camp.

If you wish for your child to be placed with a friend or a family member whose ages are not within one year of one another, our policy is to place the older camper with the younger camper’s trail group. The group that your child is assigned to will be your camper’s trail group for the week. Individual groups will not interact with one another.
