A camp for children ages 14 to 16 takes place Monday, July 2 to Friday, July 6 that welcomes back former campers and also welcomes new campers. Join us at Doon Heritage Village for a fun camp with leadership experiences. Teens will have an opportunity to learn new skills while helping out in a variety of our historic buildings.
