Family Activities
In the Spring, Summer, and Autumn seasons, the Preserve is alive with family activities. Some of the activities revolve around our comprehensive amenity package, but many are based at the Nature Center, where three full-time naturalists open the doors to an exciting world of learning for every member of the family. The season kicks off with the annual Camp Balsam celebration, welcoming families back to the mountain with entertainment, games, and great food. The Preserve's summer camp programs are one of the most popular summer events, with camp sessions designed for toddlers all the way up to teens. A weekly kid’s club provides children with new experiences such as arts and crafts projects, horseback riding, and nature walks. Holidays are always celebrated family style, with parades, parties, and special surprises. |
