Day Camp Nature Outing

This event is being held in-person and is open to international and globally-minded students. Registration for this event is now closed. Please contact Jo Mattos ([email protected]) with any questions.

Looking to get out and explore nature in Minnesota? International and globally-minded students can enjoy an authentic Minnesota half-day camp experience at the beautiful Camp Fire Minnesota, only 20 miles from Minneapolis. Students will enjoy outdoor games, a bonfire with hotdogs and s’mores, cold beverages, and more!

Students will also have the opportunity to help the local environment by removing invasive species plants, like buckthorn – equipment and training will be provided.

Don’t miss this unique opportunity to experience Minnesota’s outdoorsy traditions, volunteer, connect with nature, engage with students from different universities, have a fun and relaxing time, and help make the world a better place.
