Sailors and Shipwright (ages 10-12)
July 21-25, 2025, 9 AM-3 PM

Campers will team up with the professional boatbuilders at The Boatshop at Strawbery Banke for a hands-on week of crafting a wooden model sailboat. They will dive into the fundamentals of boatbuilding, mastering basic woodworking techniques to transform drawings and raw materials into fully functional, 3D sailboats. The week will wrap up with campers launching their creations and sailing them, before taking them home to inspire future adventures.

In addition, campers set sail aboard the Gundalow to learn the skills of traditional navigation and sailing. They’ll also hop into wooden wherries to explore the rivers, learning how to row and discover our waterways.

Members: $450. Nonmembers $500.
Registration for this camp is through the Gundalow Company.
