As an outdoor facility that relies on Mother Nature season after season, Brimacombe recognizes the importance of protecting the environment and its fragile ecosystems.
Earth Day presents the perfect opportunity to celebrate and appreciate nature with your family and discuss the many ways in which we can be more environmentally friendly, not just today, but in our day-to-day lives.
Looking for ways to celebrate Earth Day with the kids? We invite you to join Brimacombe’s Earth Day Celebration on Saturday, April 20th, 2024 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m! Take part in a hike & litter clean-up, tie-dye a Camp Brimacombe t-shirt($)*, make some nature-inspired crafts, plant seeds, and join in on fun activities with our Camp Brimacombe team!
This event is free to the public.

Here’s the list of activities for the day:
