Family Camp: Campfire with Night Hike, Storytelling & S'mores
Our campfire on August 14th at the Ridgefield Rec Center was an evening of outdoor summer fun, with toasted marshmallows and s'mores, followed by a night hike to learn about animals and creatures that become active at sunset. After the hike we returned to the campfire for Native American stories about the stars and constellations. For many of the children this was their first campfire, and even some of the adults had never had a s'more before that night! It was a really great night of family fun.

Family Camp trip to Muscoot Farm
Our trip to Muscoot Farm in Katonah, NY was a terrific day. We started with a hayride that brought us through the farm and past the horses. It was a beautiful ride and allowed us to view the land beyond the farm buildings. The kids enjoyed getting up close to the cows in the Dairy Barn, and also the old-fashioned Milk House, Ice House, and Blacksmith Shop. Muscoot Farm is a fun and educational place where families can visit farm animals, including horses, cows, goats, chickens, and pigs, while learning about the history of the farm.
