Please join the University of Illinois Extension Cook County Youth Development team for a 4 week-long summer day camp focusing on health and wellness for youth entering 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th grade. We aim to help youth learn how to lead lives that balance physical, mental, and emotional health. Youth will have the chance to connect with new friends and discover the benefits of mindfulness through nature, the arts, movement, and other mindful practices. They will engage in healthy cooking and gardening while enjoying camp activities such as archery, hiking, canoeing, fishing, water-play in the lazy river, weekly field trips, a family overnight camp experience and more.
