Springmont is excited to offer rising 3rd through rising 6th-year students an opportunity to spend five days and four nights at Springmont’s Landschool, our 86-acre environmental education campus in the north Georgia mountains. The week (June 10-14) will include a safe, fun, and outdoor-oriented program led by Springmont Teachers Claire Tadeo, Tiffany Orem, and Thomson Chuites. All staff are first aid and CPR trained, with a certified lifeguard-trained staff member present for all aquatic activities. 

Activities will include:

• Aquatic activities, including swimming and boating
• Field trips to local sites, such as the Rocky Mountain Recreation Area and Howard Finster’s Paradise Garden
• Wilderness skill-building, leading to a night of campfire cooking, stargazing, and tent-camping
• Nightly campfires and s’mores
• Daily Art and PE activities
• Ecology-based science lessons 
• Free time for sports activities, games, reading, and relaxing
• Well-balanced and nutritious meals and snacks, served buffet-style

Fees:
$1000 per student includes all activities, food, lodging, and transportation between our Atlanta campus, activities, and the Landschool via activity buses driven by the teachers.

Schedule:
Campers will depart our Atlanta campus in the morning on Monday, June 10, and return to campus in the late afternoon on Friday, June 14.  A more detailed schedule and additional information, including a Packing List, will be provided in advance of the trip.

Registration:
Enrollment will be capped at 20 students, and we must have a minimum of 12 or the program may be canceled. Spots will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Registration, including a $250 non-refundable deposit, is done online and reserves your child’s space. Registration closes May 3. Balances, billed via FACTS, are due May 17 and are non-refundable after May 17.
