Animals are all around us, from our pets to wild species in the St. Louis area. Campers will explore why some animals are considered invasive, endangered, at-risk, and what people can do to be advocates for creatures in their neighborhoods and around the world.

Although there will be no off-campus field trip this week, campers will swim on Wednesday and Friday.

Repurpose, redesign, reimagine! Using a variety of recyclable, old, unused or outdated items, campers will reimagine new lives for found objects. In addition to items campers wish to bring, TCS will supply plenty of fun, exciting, and useful leftover items from the school year. Items may include but are not limited to books, frames, electronics, small wooden furniture, instruments, containers, jewelry, clocks, home decor, etc. There is no telling what this crew will reimagine and create at the end of this week! 

Climb on! Climbing! Our campus rock climbing wall will challenge and strengthen campers as they learn the safety and climbing skills necessary to summit! Climbing is an important part of our curriculum and our equipment is designed to fit campers of all ages.

In addition to climbing, our youngest campers will engage in a fun and interactive art project while learning about famous climbers and explorers.
