Camp in a Box STEAM Kits

Give them a Summer

of Learning in Freedom.

They work hard all school year. Give them a summer of fun, friendships and good old fashioned playful memories.

STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) activities all in hands on, project based style for campers to choose from.

Fun, friendship, science, art, nature, adventure and park and creek exploration come together in a fully child choice environment with respectful, caring adults sharing their skills.

Camp Wild Heart is hosted and presented by Thrive.
Open to all TK-8th grade students (ages 4 years and 9 months to 13).
FREE breakfast and lunch provided by Chico's Summer Nutrition Program (open to students in all income levels) most of summer.
Families, please provide your own sack lunches all other dates.

Self-Directed and Child- Led

Wild Heart Campers are treated to a daily array of fun, educational, exciting options and have the opportunity to choose which activities they'd like to participate in.

Nature, Park and Creek Exploration

A short walk to beautiful Bidwell Park. One of our popular students' choices is to join the leaders who are spending the day in the park building forts, splashing in the creek, and learning naturalist and survivalist wilderness skills.

Hands On Science, Art and Engineering

Wild Heart Campers love the exciting hands on projects and activities they get to choose from daily. STEAM activities are presented in a fun, engaging hands on way with enthusiastic adults making learning fun.
