Information about the River Rats Camp program!

HERMITCRABS
ENTERING GRADE K
Our youngest campers join us for a week of discovery and adventure at the water’s edge near Creek Farm in Portsmouth, NH. Each week, our Horseshoe Crab campers gain confidence near the water by meeting marine critters, doing projects, singing songs and most importantly playing in nature along our shorelines. Horseshoe Crab campers will also explore on the water in our sit-atop kayaks and in motorboat rides. Through these activities, campers become budding naturalists and river explorers.
Please note: Our Horseshoe Crab campers do not sail on the Gundalow, but may do a dockside program.
