Overview

Old Salem Five Yesterdays Summer Camp: A Journey Back in Time Step into the past this summer at the Old Salem Five Yesterdays Summer Camp in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. This immersive, hands-on program invites kids to experience life as it was for the Moravians in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Perfect for history buffs and curious minds alike, this camp blends education with fun, offering a truly enriching way to spend a week. Running from 9 a.m. to noon for one week, Five Yesterdays caters to rising 3rd through 8th graders, with activities tailored to each grade level and age group. Campers will dive into early American crafts and trades, exploring skills like hearth cooking, pottery, woodworking, and textiles. Every year brings fresh activities, ensuring that children who return will always find something new to learn and enjoy. The camp’s thoughtful structure encourages hands-on learning in an engaging environment. Kids won’t just hear about history—they’ll live it. From creating pottery to weaving textiles or preparing food over an open hearth, campers will gain a deeper understanding of the daily lives of Salem’s early residents. Each activity is designed to be accessible and enjoyable for children of all abilities.

One of the most memorable moments comes on the final day when campers participate in a traditional Moravian Love Feast while dressed in period costumes. It’s a unique way for kids to celebrate their week of hard work and share their experiences with family and friends. For older campers who have aged out of Five Yesterdays, Old Salem offers an Apprenticeship Program for high school students—proof that this camp leaves a lasting impression on its participants. Whether your child is a budding historian or simply loves hands-on activities, Old Salem Five Yesterdays Summer Camp offers an unforgettable chance to step back in time. It’s more than just a camp—it’s a time machine fueled by curiosity and creativity.
