Looking for a Memorable Summer . . .

Alpaca & Nature Day-Camp is like no other camp you will find.  Our camper learn all about alpacas in the barn and work with their fiber  in our Fiber Cottage.  Our campers learn to spin alpaca fiber on a spinning wheel.  They learn to weave on a variety of looms.  We do not do cookie crafts, our campers design their own weaving with the guidance of Catherine Stickann and Carol Arnold.  Take a look at some of the projects our campers have made:

Our campers learn about the  plants and the creek that runs through the property.  Many of our campers return year after year.  If you are interested and would like more information, contact Catherine Stickann @ (573)-815-9500 or email her @ busycs4@aol.com  Please put Camp in the subject line.

Session II

We are just about ready to finish Session II.  the weather has been hot but  we have had a good time with our breaks being water relays.  Dr. Dusty has come by twice to talk about alpacas and the camps have  taken in much new knowledge.  There has been some great things going on with the alpaca leading, most notably with Pippi  who is now moving on a lead.   Today we will finish all those projects, baskets, purses, treasure bags and more. . . 

Session II begins tomorrow!

I hope all of my campers are ready for Alpaca & Nature Day-Camp, Session II.  I am and I am sure Carol is.  The alpacas have missed the campers and  of course all the cats and dogs are ready to see the extra faces on the farm.  The more hands to throw Phebe's ball the better!
