Youth 7 to 12 years old have an opportunity to become immersed in the world of living history during a week-long camp this summer at Michigan’s Heritage Park in Whitehall. Campers will explore the daily lives of some of Michigan’s earliest residents as they practice prehistoric spear throwing at the Atlatl course and learn how to survive on limited resources as an early settler. They will learn about the lives of lumberjacks at the Logging Shanty and will create their own log mark.
The camp will be held from 9:00 am to 4:30 pm. Campers will need to bring a sack lunch and snack. The cost of the week-long camp is $120 for Museum members and $150 for non-members. Six scholarships are available for youth who live in Whitehall and Montague.
The camp registration form, medical consent form, and scholarship application can be found on the Museum website under the Program tab.
