Programs

Crow's Neck has a simple two part education philosophy: Have Fun and Learn Something! We believe sharing knowledge in a setting that encourages exploration and discovery generates enthusiasm for learning. Experience shows this kind of enthusiasm stays with our students long after their visit. And we often find adult leaders are more excited than their kids as the visit rekindles a passion for learning!

Cooperation, group dynamics, environmental education, life skills, natural sciences, and outdoor recreation are brought together to form the heart of the Crow's Neck experience.  The courses listed below serve as a starting point for developing a program schedule tailor-made for your group. Likewise, class lengths can be adjusted from one to three hours to meet your needs.

***All of our classes are aligned with state competencies and frameworks.  References to the frameworks, along with course objectives, are available upon request.  We are famous for customizing our classes to meet your needs, so please ask us how we can help!  Simply, review the list below, complete and submit a Course Request Form.  We will be happy to come to your school (especially, if you can help us with the cost of gas!) and meet with parents and administrators.  Please give our Director of Programs a call to set it up. ***

journaling

In a world of X-box's and computers, do we get much practice at using our hands to be creative? 

Students will make a journal and are encouraged to get their creative juices flowing and find a way to express themselves, whether it is through prose, poetry or even artwork.  They can use the journals to reflect on their time at Crow's neck, recording observations, events, thoughts, and feelings.  They'll share (if they want to...) their creative writing, art or poetry and have a chance to discuss the value of "getting away from it all".
