The goal of the Teen Discovery Program is to support youth social-emotionally and with their transition from middle school to high school. We welcome participation from any middle school and high school-aged youth. The program takes place remotely, via zoom, on Monday evenings from 4:00-5:30 pm and is offered to youth free of charge for the Winter/Spring season. Youth will engage in brainstorming and decision making, as well as academic activities such as virtual field trips and classes. The program will also allow for social interaction with other participants and Camp Fire staff. For those of you familiar with our summer Discovery camp program - our hope is to make this a year round program with adjustments made for each season.
