Hit the reset button on tech this summer and replace screen time with outdoor adventure. Located in the Appalachian Mountains only 2 hours from Pittsburgh, River Mountain is a unique camp experience that gets young people off screens and empowers them to have fun, experience the outdoors, and create a healthier relationship with technology. Session 3 for kids ages 10 - 15 runs from August 16 - August 22. Space is limited. Learn more and reserve a spot by visiting www.rivermountain.org.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

The River Mountain program was developed in partnership with Penn State, under the guidance of Dr. Pete Allison, a respected authority on the impact of outdoor experiences on young people. Our research-driven, outcome-oriented retreats are intentional, effective, and above all FUN!

 

A CAMP THAT COMES HOME
River Mountain's program is designed to strengthen the skills weakened by screentime, including Communication & Relatedness, Focus & Attention, and Physical Health & Wellbeing.
 
CAMPERS WILL REDEFINE THEIR DIGITAL LIFE BY DEVELOPING DAILY GOALS AND HABITS RELATED TO:
• Sleep
• Managing Time on Apps and Games
• Friendships and Communication
• Family and Community Connections
• Mindfulness of Healthy & Positive Experiences Online
• Creating Time for Outdoor & Creative Activity
• Focus & Attention in School
• Being OK with Being Bored
 

At the end of a River Mountain experience, campers leave with a certificate they can be proud of and a personalized screentime plan to put into action at home.
