"Every tree sends its fibres forth in search of the Wild. The cities import it at any price. Men plow and sail for it. From the forest and wilderness come the tonics and barks which brace mankind." Henry David Thoreau
 
 
 

Summer Experiences that Last a Lifetime

Summer camps provide an exceptional place where children and teens can develop independence and improve self-confidence. If you are a parent looking for a structured, healthy environment that provides opportunities for your child to explore their interests and talents - and to discover new interests and talents - while having fun, Aspen Education Group offers programs that challenge your child to challenge themselves.

In a world where children and teens have so many conflicting influences and pressures, Aspen's programs provide one of the most powerful catalysts for change: a rite of passage. The wilderness becomes the ultimate teacher, serving as a metaphor for the larger world.

If you are looking for a summer program that is a lot more than just a summer vacation, Aspen is sure to have the right summer experience for your child. We offer summers that change lives!

While attending a summer camp can promote growth and personal development, unless otherwise noted, they are not therapeutic in nature. Summer camp is best suited to the child with minimal behavioral or emotional challenges, who responds to new challenges and environments without excessive difficulty.

If your teen needs an experience that will help them recognize their abilities and will strengthen their leadership skills, we have wilderness experiences that will challenge them. If you have a child or teenager who struggles with behavioral issues or learning differences, we have programs that can address their specific needs.

Whether it is a hike into the high desert of Utah, repeling the mountains of the Carolinas, or a horseback ride on a working ranch, teens are profoundly transformed by the challenges of outdoor wilderness and ranch-type programs. If your teen is struggling to find his or her place in the world, make this the summer they find themselves
