Welcome to History Camp!  

We'll tour historic buildings, natural landscapes, and more as we introduce campers to the history and activities that make the Mohican area amazing. Campers will learn about both natural and man-made history, from the forest to downtown. We'll explore nature, identify plants and animals, and even try our hand out fishing.  We'll also learn how the pioneers lived (and cooked!) and then explore historic buildings in the area.  Along the way campers will enjoy a variety of other activities, such as architecture and engineering games, art projects, and more!

Camps are designed to stimulate children's creativity and allow them to experience the history, architecture, art, crafts, and games of diverse cultures. An experienced educator leads each camp, assisted by additional educators or volunteers.
