About our programs . . .

Mohican School in the Out-of-Doors, Inc., is a private non-profit organization that provides resident and one day field trip experiences in outdoor/environmental education for school-age students. Since its beginning in 1961 Mohican School has served over 200,000 students in its programs from over 80 public and private school districts in 24 counties in Ohio.

For nearly 40 years, the school rented various camps to operate its program from September through May. In October 1999, the Mohican School Environmental Learning Center was opened. Owned and operated by the school, this beautiful facility has allowed flexibility in scheduling a wide variety of events throughout the year, including our summer camping program. Mohican School admits students of any race, color, sex, religion, national or ethnic origin.
 
 

MISSION STATEMENT
Mohican School in the Out-of-Doors, Inc., champions environmental stewardship and is committed to providing a unique understanding of the interrelatedness of the natural environment emphasizing outdoor cooperative learning in a community-centered setting.

 
Our summer camping sessions are natural extensions of our mission statement in a more relaxed atmosphere. While group responsibilities are an important part of the camp community, small camper/staff ratios allow activities to be tailored to more individual development.  A day less-structured around class periods means, for example, the fish caught can be cleaned, cooked over an open fire, and then enjoyed for dinner! With summer weather we add swimming, tubing, and camp-outs to our outdoor adventures.
  • renew friendships -- make new friends
  • experience nature in a variety of ways -- find a new appreciation for the out-of-doors
  • discover leisure-time activities that you can enjoy for a lifetime
