Program
Camp Lutherhaven desires to meet the unique needs of each participating group so that each student has opportunity to enjoy excellence in their outdoor education experience. There are three approaches that may be considered.
- Camp Lutherhaven is available to be rented out to groups for any prearranged dates for a program of your own leading.
- The staff at camp are trained to provide lessons for large or small groups of students, supplementing your already existing program.
- The staff at Camp Lutherhaven can plan and implement an entire outdoor education program ranging from 1 to 5 days. Some of our possible programming is listed below for you. Please note that even when an activity is being led by the staff, groups are encouraged to provide a ratio of 1 adult per 8 students.
