Camp Noah is FUN
Children begin the day with a large group gathering full of songs, skits and fun.
Mornings are spent in groups for discussion, art projects, journaling, recreation and
snacks. After a nutritious lunch, kids spend the afternoon hearing stories, playing games, watching puppet shows, and doing arts and crafts. The day ends with more songs, skits and fun during a large group closing with new friends.
Camp Noah is HEALING
Camp Noah is typically a day camp for children whose communities have been impacted by disaster. Camps are held in the disaster affected area in cooperation with local partners. Screened and trained, caring volunteers and staff provide a safe, fun atmosphere for children to tell their stories, grieve their losses, build resiliency skills and find hope for the future.
