Week 3 is a wrap here at LBIF Summer Camp— and what a wild one it was! 🎨🫟🐾🐢🦀🐟

This week, our campers turned into storytellers, historians, and junior conservationists. We traveled back in time, exploring how animals have been used to keep records and tell stories for centuries, then swooped into osprey territory, learning all about their habitats and the real challenges these incredible birds face today. 

Our 22-acre outdoor playground was buzzing with curiosity, creativity, and conversation all week long! And to tie it all together? We got hands-on (literally) with Gyotaku, the traditional Japanese art of fish printing, proving once again that art and science make the best kind of magic when they team up! 

Another week, another reason we love what we do. Join the fun! 💗 by @lbifcamp

LBIF Camp is always a great adventure! It’s a place for play, discovery, disconnecting from our devices, and connecting with one another. 

This week, old friends reunited once more and new friends joined our camp family. Whether on the marsh, in the studios or on the court, that feeling of summer home set in. 

Terrapins stole the spotlight as this week’s featured campers! 🐢 Biologist Ben Wurst, Sean, and Sarah from @conservewildlife_nj brought the world of terrapins to life, giving campers an up-close look at these incredible creatures and the important work being done to protect them. 

Over in the art studios, creativity was in full swing as visiting artist Anna Krain, alongside our instructors, guided campers in exploring the language of symbols. The studios buzzed with imagination as colorful creations came to life. 🎨🌀

Campers capped the week with a spirited performance of Zootopia, directed by Kathy Renna, and headed back out to the tennis courts and AfterCamp! 🎭 🎾 🛝

This is just the start— there’s so much more fun to be had in the next coming weeks!
