Camp CRAVE is a 4-day summer camp that focuses on healthy living. CRAVE stands for Culture, Recreation, Active, Values, and Education. Some of the activities include: tobacco prevention, campfire activities, alcohol awareness, hiking, paddle boarding, social/ emotional learning, swimming, fishing, nutrition education, group games, archery, cultural activities, and more! There are three sessions each summer: Foxes (ages 8-10), Wolves (ages 10-12), and Bears (ages 12-14). Foxes Camp is a day camp with one overnight stay at the Alaska Missions & Retreats (AKMR) cabin in Nook, just 18 miles outside of Nome. Wolves and Bears Camps are sleep-away camps held at Bear Creek Fish Camp in Council, Alaska.
Camp was originally started as a tobacco prevention camp and evolved into CRAVE in 2013. For many youth in the Nome, camping experiences like those offered at Camp CRAVE would not have been available. Youth learn team building skills, service and citizenship, and how to enjoy what nature has to offer. Camp CRAVE would not exist without the support of our volunteers and funders, both private and through grants.
