Get away from the screen and into the wild, learning about nature through a real outdoor MinecraftTM-themed adventure!
  • Survive in an unfamiliar environment, build an epic shelter, forage for food, hunt for materials and fend off wandering monsters through a series of challenges
  • Develop survival skills through fire-making, mapping, and plant identification
  • "Creative mode" allows time for creating potions, planting take-home projects and imaginative nature exploration.

NOTE: Not an official MinecraftTM product. Not approved by or associated with Mojang.

 

*HALF-DAY camp sessions are not available as a part of a full day option, and piecing camps together is not recommended. Staff will not be available for lunch hour care or to provide transportation between camp locations.
