FIELD BIOLOGY FOR TEENS CAMP

The Great Basin Naturalists, Field Biology for Teens Camp brings teens ages 13-17 one step closer to becoming scientists. Throughout the week, teens will learn skills and techniques used by real scientists in the field regarding plants, animals, water, and survival! Through fun, hands-on activities led by enthusiastic young professionals, campers will gain leadership skills, make new friends, and learn self reliance. Teen campers participate in daily hikes, outdoor adventures, overnight camping trips, a teen learning-service project and more!

If you are hoping to get a glimpse into what a career as a wildlife biologist, outdoor ecologist, or environmental scientists looks like, or if you just love being outside, this is the camp for you!

SUMMER INTERNSHIPS FOR TEENS

Counselor-in-Training Internships 
The Counselor in Training Program (CIT) is a summer option available for 15-17 year-olds on a selected and limited basis. There is space available for 2 CITs each week during summer camp. CITs live at home during Day camp weeks and stay for the full week during Residential camp weeks. There is no camp charge for accepted CITs. ​CITS responsibilities are to assist camp staff with program implementation and facilitation, and learn the what working at a summer camp looks like.
Culinary Internships
Great Basin Naturalists at Galena Residential Camps will offer outdoor, science camps for kids ages 8-12 for four weeks in the summer of 2020.  One week of teen camp will also be held during this time. These experiences are supported by health meals that are locally-sourced where possible and deliciously crafted with the help of a professional chef. Culinary Interns  (ages 13-17) gain valuable experience in all kitchen stations, take a leadership role in presenting meals, assist with maintaining a clean kitchen, prepare a special dessert, and work with our incredible, professional chef. Culinary Interns will gain valuable, real world work experience.​
