CampIN

The Great Outdoor Lab CampIN!

Join us on Saturday, May 2 for the Great Outdoor Lab CampIN! Set up a pillow fort inside your home, or set up a tent in your yard.

We know the Outdoor Lab Camp-Out is a highlight for our 5th Grade Students. Since we can’t host them at the Lab this year, we wanted to share the fun — virtually — with everyone!

How to participate:

  • Make your plans for camping indoors or outside in your yard — planning is half of the fun!
    • What supplies do you need? Flashlights? Pillows? Sleeping bags or blankets?
    • How can your family pitch in to help?
  • Join us! See the schedule below for how you can tune in to see how the Outdoor Lab celebrates the CampIN with snacks, games, and campfire stories!
    • What might you see and hear during your campIN? Check it out!
    • Dust off your best campfire stories and get ready to share with your family!
    • Visit the Outdoor Lab Trade Secrets page — we’re letting our secrets out for a limited time!
  • SHARE WITH US!!! We want this to be a community event and to share (virtually) in the fun with you!
    • We’re using DropEvent for all of our friends of the Lab to share pictures of how you’re participating in the Great Outdoor Lab CampIN! Please share your pictures!
    • Ask an adult to share pictures to the Outdoor Lab’s Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter pages!
    • However you choose to share, remember to use #ODLcampIN
