The Wild Way Spring Break Camp is back for 2025! This camp overlaps with both Roanoke City and Roanoke County/Salem public school spring break.

There’s no excuse to be bored this spring break. Join us for a full week of outdoor adventure, including hiking, climbing, caving, camping skills, and more. At this time, we are enrolling girls ages 9 to 14.

This five-day day camp includes the following adventures*:

• A beautiful and exciting hike (location TBD may include Cascades, Dragon’s Tooth, or Hay Rock).

• Rock wall climbing and archery at The Peaks Retreat & Adventure Center in Bedford, VA

• Caving in a real wild cave in Covington, VA

• Team-building and ecological education at Apple Ridge Farms in Copper Hill, VA, with a visit from some of the Southwest Virginia Wildlife Center’s rescue animals

• Shelter and fire-building, plus a ride on the big swing at Wilderness Adventure at Eagle Landing in Craig County, VA

*Activities may change based on weather and group ability.

TRANSPORTATION: Transportation is provided to each day’s adventure location; we ask that parents drop-off and pick-up children at Wasena Park. Drop-off is at 8:30am each morning and pick up at 3:30pm.

PAYMENT: The Wild Way’s activities are offered on a sliding scale fee. After filling out the application below, you will be directed to a site where you can make your preferred contribution amount. Our services are FREE to families in need. Please don’t hesitate to request a fee waiver.
