Centennial Forest Envrionmental Education Programs

United States, Flagstaff

Overview

The Centennial Forest Environmental Education Programs at Northern Arizona University are a breath of fresh air—literally and figuratively. Set in the world’s largest continuous ponderosa pine forest, this camp invites children aged 9 to 16 to immerse themselves in nature while exploring science, survival skills, and environmental stewardship. With a low counselor-to-camper ratio and cozy tent cabins for overnight stays, it’s an experience that feels both adventurous and safe. Campers will dive into hands-on forestry techniques like tree mapping and measuring diameters, guided by Northern Arizona University’s world-class faculty. They’ll also learn about wildlife conservation, ecological restoration, and the importance of land stewardship. But it’s not all serious business—activities like Logger Olympics, insect studies, woodworking, and traditional arts keep the days dynamic and fun. This year introduces the Climate Change Challenge Camp, where young minds collaborate with researchers to tackle global climate issues. Using university labs, campers will develop practical solutions and present their findings to experts—a unique opportunity to step into the shoes of environmental scientists. Beyond the academic focus, there’s plenty of time for hiking, team-building games, and making lifelong friends under the towering pines. The camp’s emphasis on community service and connection to nature ensures kids leave with more than just memories—they gain a deeper appreciation for the environment and their role in protecting it. For families seeking a summer filled with discovery, adventure, and meaningful learning, Centennial Forest offers an unforgettable escape into the heart of Arizona’s natural beauty.
