Nature Camp
Has Openings
By ROBIN PURNELL
Rappahannock New* Contributing Writer
The Rappahannock Natural History Daycamp wants to remind all curious naturalists that we still have openings in our second session from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., July 10-14.
Although our regular, two-week session is full, we are offering three new courses for the older camper ages 10 and up.
Two courses are open for enrollment, “Salamanders and other amphibians” and “Mountain Ecology.”
Peter A. Kramer, son of renowned furniture maker Peter Kramer, has recently earned his master’s degree in herpetology from Marshall University. Peter will guide campers into the dark, damp world of salamanders. The Shenandoah region has more varieties of these fascinating creatures than any area in the world. Identification, habitat comparison and lifestyle will be observed and recorded. This is a wonderful opportunity to study with an expert.
Lyt Wood, local arborist and naturalist, will lead a course on “Mountain Ecology.” Any person interested in studying the local flora and fauna will have a unique opportunity to spend a week in the woods with Lyt. A teacher of adult courses at the Nature Camp at Vesuvius, Va. and as a longtime teacher and leader at Rappahannock Natural History Day Camp, Lyt’s knowledge of bird calls, trees, insects and mammals brings a wealth of knowledge to this course.
