aloha-nā-keiki
This overnight camp was established to embrace the spirit of aloha - aloha for ourselves, each other, and our natural world. Our activities are based on having fun outdoors and igniting our sense of play, while honing in on our explorative skills and kilo (observation).

"This experience impacted me in many ways. I saw a different point of view from the world and not only through getting to be apart of nature (outside) everyday, but through storytelling and culture that everyone there shared with us. It also showed me how to treat my body with the right food and nutrients."

"I learned and was also reminded that, "The sky is the limit." During the activities, I have noticed how alike and different I am from everyone around me, and that to be unique and special in any way is a blessing and we should embrace them."
