ENOR Environmental Discovery Camp

09/18/2026

Curriculum spotlight: ENOR's 6th graders, or Falcons Aerie, spend their Tuesday at Staunton State Park and travel back in time to Colorado's homesteading days.

The Stauntons moved to Denver in 1903, purchased their ranch in 1918, expanded throughout the early 20th century, and was donated to Colorado State Parks in 1986. On the way to explore the structures that make up this historic ranch, campers discuss animal adaptation and folklore. Falcons learn the history of the Staunton family homestead before designing their own homestead and cabins with park rangers.

Along Davis Pond trail hike, Falcons discover:
📍The old dump site
📍Terraced gardens
📍Bath house
📍Historic cabins

The social theme for this day is perseverance and determination, with campers learning how to achieve goals by overcoming difficulties.

Your incoming 6th grader can participate in fun activities like this and more with ENOR Environmental Discovery Camp! Sign up to be added to our notification list when camp is open for registration: https://col.st/38t8m.

The Camp They'll Never Stop Talking About🔆🌲

"Kids come home tired but jazzed about their day and talk non-stop about what they did, where they went, and what they learned." – Parent of Falcon's Aerie Camper

From the history of homesteading to local parks, wildlife, and forests, every day at ENOR Summer Camp is filled with discovery. Campers return home excited to share their adventures, eager to revisit their favorite places, and proud to show off everything they've learned along the way.

🍃 Sign up to get notified when registration opens January 1st: https://col.st/38t8m. Don't miss the chance to give your child a summer full of adventure, learning, and unforgettable memories.
