Are you, or someone you love, affected by Nature Deficit Disorder? Lassen Land and Trails Trust’s Nature Camp is the cure!

If you have a child, grandkid, or even a friends’ child at home this summer, pry them away from that video game and send them to Lassen Land and Trails Trust’s Nature Camp for great outdoor adventures and learning.

Campers will enjoy observing wildlife, learning about history, archaeology, watersheds, geology, botany and how to be safe in the out-of-doors from resource professionals. Additionally, it’s a wonderful opportunity to make new friends, learn new skills and gain a greater appreciation of our beautiful Lassen County home.

Three sessions are being offered again this year; the first two sessions will be day-camps and are scheduled for July 20th – 24th and July 27th – 31st for 8-12 year-olds. The third session is an overnight adventure scheduled for August 3rd – 5th at Lassen County Youth Camp on Eagle Lake.
