Give the Gift of Adventure
Toys? Games? Clothes? The latest electronics gadget? Each holiday season, parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles are faced with the hard decision of what gifts to give children. This year, as part of your holiday gift list, consider the Gift of Adventure.
Summer camp at Heritage Reservation provides Scouts with organized activities, time for free play, a nurturing and safe environment, and essential time in the outdoors — a great experience that offers extraordinary learning opportunities and enduring memories. This year give a special child in your life the gift that lasts a lifetime — give them the Gift of Adventure.
Parents, leaders and camp staff have always known that the camp experience benefits Scouts — but there is now research to back it. Harris Interactive of New York designed a study on the impact of summer camp in the lives of Boy Scouts, Scout leaders and parents of Scouts. The researchers concluded that within the typical six days of Boy Scout summer camp, boys are in an environment that comprehensively provides them with critical elements of healthy youth development. Learn more about the study.
As this holiday season approaches, offer the Scouts in your life a gift that will provide them with time outdoors, a chance to play, an opportunity for experiential learning and growth — plus memories, skills, and experiences they will cherish their entire lives. Let’s pass up the newest electronic toy this year and give the Gift of Adventure.
