Net Loft Summer Camp 2026 (Year 1 & 2) | Nature Journaling Study Group

Come to Summer Camp with The Net Loft! 

Join us for a summertime self-guided course in nature journaling. The Net Loft Summer Camp will be using Roseann Hanson's books for a summer of nature study and recording of outdoor observations and experiences for first and second year campers, while third year campers will enjoy a summer of independent study and an opportunity to do a nature journaling presentation for the group if desired. Please note; this is just to REGISTER for Summer Camp 2026. We will link books with required materials and kits separately. 

The eight-week course of instruction and guidance, via the readings and assignments in the texts will provide structure for a summer of nature journaling activities. Participants are welcome to discuss their progress in our monthly gatherings and via a designated private zoom chat. 

Please specify in messages if you plan to attend in person or on zoom. Sessions will be recorded for those unable to meet during meeting times.

Dotty Widmann will be coordinating the camp sessions.
