Do you hear the sounds of nature? Listen to bird songs, frog calls, and the wind in the trees. Discover and explore Animal Voices. Create your own instrument and play in Nature’s Band.

August 1 - 5 — Busy as Beavers

Let’s get busy! Spend this jam-packed week building dams, nests, and other shelters. Explore as many locations as we can find. Discover the many ways the animals at the Bent stay busy year-round.

August 8 - 12 — ImagiNature

Become a nature artist for the week! Help us fill the Bent of the River with camper-designed land art; mud creatures on tree trunks, toad and fairy homes, and sand and clay structures. We’ll use materials we find throughout our meadow, river, and forest.

Join us for one last summer adventure, from water games to fort building, wetland traversing to log flipping! Try all of the Bent's favorite activities in one fun-filled week.
