Outdoor Education
| Combining
modern facilities, 72 acres of hickory
and oak forest, trails, fields, and
wetlands make Camp Lutherhaven a great
spot for your Outdoor Education. Camp's goal is to
compliment, reinforce, and clarify concepts that are
usually taught in the classroom. Lutherhaven
offers as much help as needed by your group, able to
provide facilities and an environment conducive to
learning; teaching classes ranging from amphibians to
wetlands study; or providing an entire Outdoor Education
experience.
