Our Youth and Teen Camp has been busy exploring and learning this summer!

Last week, campers enjoyed a wonderful adventure at Lake Katherine Nature Center, where they connected with nature and discovered the beauty of the outdoors.

This week, they visited the Orland Park Public Library , where they explored the library, learned about its resources, and had the opportunity to experience the sensory room.

We're proud of our campers for embracing new experiences, building friendships, and making the most of their summer adventures!
