Program Overview

Program Details:

During this Enchanting week, children will be taking a week-long immersion into the land of Oz!! The only way to get there of course is to follow the yellow brick road. They will lay the magical path themselves, build an emerald city, explore rainbows of colors, and so much more!!

Please read this information carefully prior to registering your child.

This nature program is for children ages 5-9, but the ages may be flexible to accommodate siblings- please send us an email prior to registration if this is an issue for you. This summer camp runs 9am-1pm. 

Our program is inclusive; we are a safe place for children and families of all abilities, backgrounds, and belief systems. Children are required to bring their own food; families will be notified of allergies prior to camp.

        COVID procedures

• Frequent sanitizing and hand washing throughout the day
• Counselors and parents asked to check for symptoms each morning
• frequent cleaning of bathroom
• masks not required outdoors. This may change depending on fluctuating regulations.
• some activities/materials modified
• REFUND POLICY- In the event that we have to close due to lockdown, you will be offered a 90% refund or 100% credit.  Credit is ONLY issued in the event that TimberNook Northwest Indiana has to cancel the program. If a child has to miss a class for any reason there will be no refunds.

When deciding if summer camp will be a good fit for your child, please take the following into consideration:

• We maintain a 6:1 child/adult ratio where the role of the adult is to step back and tune in. TimberNook staff maintains visual contact with children, but may be out of arm’s reach. Counselors allow children the opportunity to build conflict resolution skills and independence, stepping in when safety is a factor.
• Children maintain visual contact of a TimberNook counselor, stay within the designated boundaries of our site, and manage their needs (such as eating, drinking fluids, and using the restroom). Please no children in diapers.
• We understand that children are individuals and sometimes have varying abilities and unique needs. If your child requires additional support, please contact us to make a plan prior to registering.

If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to get in touch. If you are having difficulty with registration or payment, please try a different browser (chrome is the suggested browser) and clear your cookies/cache. If this program is full, email to be added to the waitlist:
