Sail Away, Sleep Away Nature Camp

Sail away for the weekend! Board the Lady Maryland for an all-day sail down the Chesapeake Bay and up through the Magothy River Sanctuary to our overnight destination, Camp Whippoorwill, and return sail the next morning. It's a nature camp for adults!
We'll be exploring both on the water and on the land, and be on the lookout for all the critters who call each area home. While on board, you'll learn about sailing and engage in hands-on marine science with our friends at the Living Classroom Foundation. Activities will include water quality testing, plankton trawling with microscope exploration, trawl fishing for marine life, oyster dissection, bird morphology and identification, setting sail, and steering the ship. Once at camp, we'll turn to the woods for our inspiration. We can wander the trails, listen for birds, and enjoy a campfire with yummy s'mores. Plus, there's a whole nighttime of nocturnal pursuits to explore, from owls, moths, and spiders to zombie fungi.
