Summer Camp 2025 registration is open to the public! We can’t wait to welcome our friends to Reflection Riding for a season of exploration and curiosity. Our campus is more than just a day at the park—we’re a 300-acre classroom filled with hands-on discovery, wildlife encounters, and outdoor adventures that ignite young minds. We’ll make amazing memories, explore the forest, meet new friends, and have a ton of fun at Chattanooga’s best outdoor summer camp!
Each camper can create their own adventure with four unique themes:
EcoQuest—Adventures in Sustainability: In this session, campers will explore the importance of sustainability through engaging activities and hands-on experiences. We'll go on nature hikes, learn about conservation and waste reduction, and participate in eco-friendly challenges. We’ll also explore our local ecosystems and discover the fascinating world of native plants and animals. Campers will develop a deeper appreciation for the environment and learn valuable skills that can help protect our planet for generations to come. This is a wonderful opportunity for children to connect with nature and make lasting friendships.
Art in the Wild—Nature’s Canvas: Unleash your inner artist in the great outdoors! This week, campers will unleash their creativity while surrounded by the beauty of nature. Using natural materials found on our campus, they will create stunning works of art inspired by the outdoors. This session encourages a love for nature while exploring the beauty of our world and provides a unique opportunity for children to express themselves artistically. It's a perfect blend of art and nature exploration.
Survival Quest—Mastering the Wild: Calling all future adventurers! In this exciting session, campers will learn essential outdoor survival skills like shelter building, orienteering, and knot-tying. They will gain confidence and develop valuable teamwork skills while navigating the great outdoors. We'll also explore the amazing adaptations that plants and animals use to survive in their natural habitats. This is a fantastic opportunity for children to learn valuable life skills and develop a deeper connection with the natural world.
EcoTech Innovators—Building a Green Future: Ready to become an eco-innovator? This session blends science, engineering, and environmental awareness. Campers will work together to design and build eco-friendly solutions and explore the principles of renewable energy. Through hands-on projects like animal enrichment, pond studies, dam building, invasive species pulling, and creating solar ovens, campers will learn about environmental issues and develop innovative problem-solving skills. This is a rewarding experience for children who are curious about the world around them and interested in making a positive impact. Get ready for a week of collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving!
