Thank you for considering Camp Victory for

your Outdoor Education experience. Camp

Victory provides a unique experience that

allows your students an opportunity to explore

the natural world while they learn new and

exciting things about themselves. Our

curriculum is standards based and our lessons

communication and cooperation skills. Here

at Camp Victory, we will encourage your

students to see their optimal potential in a

fun and encouraging atmosphere.

Enclosed in the following pages, you will find

Frequently Asked Questions

Where will students sleep?

Students share A-Frame cabins with 12 other students and 1

or 2 adult leaders. Each cabin is heated and cooled year

round and has it’s own private bathroom and shower area.

Students sleep on the main level of the cabin with

additional meeting area on the second floor loft.

When do we eat?

Students are fed three times a day at specific meal times. Each meal is

designed to give students the energy they need to be successful during the

day. Any dietary restrictions (vegetarian, lactose, gluten free) can be

accommodated with advanced notice.

Is this summer camp?

Not really. It’s called outdoor education, because students

will be spending most of their day outdoors. While some of

our classes start indoors, they will all end up outdoors.

Students will explore the woods, hike our trails, and use their

senses to see the natural world like never before.

Who are our teachers?

At Camp Victory we have a great number of very capable

instructors. We age in range from college age to adults,

but regardless of our age range, we have a variety of

topics that will keep your students engaged whether they

are in class or between them.

Is there down time?

The majority of our extended school day is structured with

classes, however there will be non-structured activity time

after each meal and before bedtime.

What kind of classes are there?

Whether they are getting lost in the woods, learning to shoot a bow,

or hanging out 40 feet in the air, our classes are designed to teach

you students something new, while still having fun.

What should students pack?

This is a very common questions asked and as a result, there is a detailed

packing list located later in this guide. We go outside in all types of weath-

er, so students and adults should come prepared. You can leave all those

nice clothes at home, because they probably will get dirty.

Student Learning Groups

While not required, it is recommended that your students wear nametags in one form or

another. This is helpful for our teaching staff, school volunteers/parents, and their fellow

classmates.

To ensure that each student receives the attention they deserve, we try to keep our

learning groups at 20 students and under.

We ask that each learning group is accompanied by at least one school official/ volunteer

in addition to our own outdoor education instructor.

Program Names and Descriptions

Wildlife Ecology: Animals, just like humans, need specific things in order to

survive. In this wild adventure students will be assigned an animal, native

to Minnesota and learn more about what their specific animal needs to

survive. After this takes place, we will be exploring different habitats in

the hopes of finding a place to call home. This class will also chart the

livelihood of the white-tailed deer. A game that everyone is fawn’d of.

Geology: This class really rocks! Students often complain that Geology is

hard, but once they get down to the dirt, they really dig it. After doing a

hands on simulation on what the Earth is really made of, students will go on

a Geology trek to look for fossils and learn more about the amazing planet

that they call home.

Animal Signs: Humans are loud. In fact, we are so loud, that we often miss

out on experiencing nature first hand. In this class students will assume the

roles of detectives in order to interpret signs that animals leave behind.

Students will receiving their detective training before going off on their

own investigative journey.

Trials of Life: This whole group activity simulates the relationship between

carnivores, omnivores, and herbivores. In this survival game, students will

take on the role of either predator or prey and search for habitat needs

that are key to their survival. Through this class, students will learn the

basic habitat requirements that animals need in order to survive within any

ecosystem. Note: There is a large amount of running in this class.

Pioneer Olympics: This whole-group cultural lesson takes students a step

back in time. Students will have the opportunity to practice pioneer,

voyageur, and Native American skills during the duration of this class.

Tomahawk tossing, candlestick making, and spear throwing are just

examples of the types of activities students will enjoy during this cultural

look back in time.

Pond Study: It’s macro invertebrate mayhem! This water study looks at

how healthy our prairie pond is. While catching our indicator species may

prove interesting enough, the fun doesn’t stop there. Through careful

examination of the small insects that live in the water, students will

determine whether our pond is healthy or not.

Orienteering: This introduction class is great for the beginner. Students

will learn how the compass works and the essentials parts needed for this

class. As students practice with their compass, they will gain the

confidence needed for other aspects of the class. This is a great class for

3rd and 4th graders or anyone else needing a low impact class.

Survival: Do your students have what it takes to survive in the wild? While

students may go through their entire life without being in a survival situa-

tion, the tools they receive in this class will help them in the future. Aside

from learning basic fire building and shelter making skills, students will

learn about the different ways our body loses heat, as well as the makings

of a good survival kit.

Canoeing: Minnesota may be the land of 10,000 lakes, but here at Camp

Victory, river canoeing will take you away. After spending time learning

about the canoe, we will spend the rest of our times practicing different

strokes on the mighty Zumbro River. Each student is outfitted with all the

gear they need and we teach our class right on the river. If water levels

are too high/low, we may have to cancel this class for safety considerations

Archery: If you think this class is fun, well your thinking is right on target.

This activity, best suited for 6th grade and up, really knows how to draw in

its audience. Students receive solid instruction on equipment selection,

use, and safety considerations. This class is great for the beginner or for

anyone looking to refine their archery skills.

T.E.A.M.: It’s really true that Together Everyone Achieves More. In this

low ropes and initiatives class, students will need to work together in order

to be successful. Students will work on their communication, cooperation,

trust, and problem solving skills, in this hands-on-learning class. This is a

great class to take as a precursor to our high ropes challenge. It can be

adapted for any age, however 5th grade and up is recommended.

High Ropes: Are you afraid of heights? If you answered no, you must be

crazy. Didn’t you know that most people have an extreme fear of heights.

In this high flying adventure, students will challenge their fears and push

themselves further than they ever thought possible. We have a variety of

elements for every comfort level. Students will receive a short safety and

procedural session before having the opportunity to challenge themselves to

new heights.

GPS/ Geocaching: Enjoy a real life, high-tech treasure hunt. After learning

more about the history of GPS and a short tutorial, students will be off.

While scouring our woods, students will learn more about the new and

exciting sport of geocaching as they follow their units from one cache to

the next. This class is best for grades 6 and up. Your students will find this

class richly rewarding.

The Beast: Your mission, if you choose to accept it, is to work against the

clock in order to rebuild the beast. During this high paced team building

activity, groups of students will focus on their communication skills as they

attempt to create an exact duplicate copy of the beast. During this

variation of the game telephone, your students will have a “wild” time

trying to build the beast before time runs out.

Nightstalker: When the lights go out, a whole new world comes alive. In

this class, we will take a look at the nocturnal world and what types of

adaptations animals have made in order to survive the darkness. After a

discussion indoors, students will play a game similar to hide and go seek.

The nightstalker activity simulates the lives of nocturnal animals and those

that prey upon them.

Alpha Wolf: If you are looking for a howling good time, this is it. In this

wolf simulation, your students will learn about pack structure, wolf

identification, and how wolves communicate. After spending time

discussing misconceptions about wolves, students will head outdoors to play

a simulation about how wolves gather for a hunt.

Campfire Program: Your students will sing, dance, and be merry during

their campfire program. Led by our skilled program assistants, students will

be entertained with stories and skits (often demanding audience

participation) as well as be regaled with songs and chants. This is a great

class for any age group and it can take place indoors in the case of

inclement weather.

Paper Making: Money may not grow on trees, but paper does, at least

indirectly. In this evening program, students will learn where paper comes

from before starting their own paper journey. Students will have the

opportunity to create their own paper square to take home as a souvenir of

their time in outdoor education.

Owl Pellets: You want me to touch what? Students will be having a “hoot”

in this class as they dissect a real owl pellet in order to determine the owl’s

last meal. Students will have the opportunity to sift through the hair and

bones and reassemble whatever animals can be found. Since owls eat their

food whole, there is a good chance your student will find all the bones

needed to recreate their animal.

What kind of character are you? How you act, or react, has more to say

about you than you think. During your welcome to outdoor education, your

students will be shown the importance of having a strong character and

how their actions can positively and negatively affect others around them.

Your character matters is a concept that we will reinforce throughout your

school’s entire visit.

What did lunch cost wildlife? This short presentation takes place after

your groups first meal. During the presentation, we will map the energy

that was used in order to grow, process, and ship your food to your plate.

As a result of the class, students will be able to determine methods to

reduce negative impacts on the environment through the choices we make

in what we decide to place, eat, and leave on our plates.

Food Swap: In any ecosystem, there is a cycle of energy. In this class,

students will learn about the food chain in a fast game of swap. Similar to

the game of P.I.T. students will attempt to outwit one another in an

attempt to assemble their food chain first. This is the only class where we

encourage outdoor voices, indoors. This is a great evening activity or it

may be substituted for another class in case of inclement weather.

In consideration of the services of Camp Victory Ministries, Inc., its members, directors, officers, employees, volunteers, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, “Camp Victory”), I agree to the following. Although Camp Victory has taken reasonable steps, including without limitation, to provide me with proper instruction, appropriate equipment and guidance, so that I can participate in, and enjoy Camp Victory activities, for which I may or may not be skilled, including, but not limited to, swimming, river canoeing, climbing, zip line, paintball, riflry, archery, mountain boarding, snow tubing sledding, broomball and other sports (“Camp Victory Activities”). I recognize and understand that Camp Victory Activities are not without risk. Certain risk can not be eliminated without destroying the unique character of the Camp Victory Activities. The same elements that contribute to the unique element of the activity can be cause of loss or damage to my equipment or accidental injury, illness, or, in extreme cases, permanent trauma or death.

Waiver of Liability and Release. I, for myself, heirs, successors and assigns, and for and on behalf of my participating minor child, agree to indemnify Camp Victory against, and hold Camp Victory harmless and forever release, remise, and discharge Camp Victory, its managers, directors, employees, volunteers, sponsors, agents, successors and assigns from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, proceedings, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities, including attorney’s fees, which I, or my child, may have, now has, or which may accrue in my or their favor in the future, which may arise out of the injury, loss or damage to person or personal property, including, without limitation, all consequential damages, whether such injury, loss or damage be known or unknown, present or future, by virtue of or in any way arising out of or resulting from my child’s participating in Camp Victory Activities and activities incidental thereto regardless of how the injury may arise, regardless of who is at fault or who negligence caused such injury or loss or damage. Camp Victory does not warrant the safety of any person(s) participating in Camp Victory activities and activities incidental thereto. I certify that I and my participating minor child are fully capable of participating in Camp Victory Activities. Therefore, I assume full responsibility for myself and my minor child, for bodily injury, death, and loss of personal property and expenses thereof as a result of those inherent risks and dangers and of my or my minor child’s actions in participating in Camp Victory Activities.
