They’ll also enjoy a variety of creative and interactive experiences like arts and crafts, active games, storytelling, improv theater, and more! Every day, campers will enjoy delicious vegan snacks and cook their own plant-based lunches alongside a talented vegan chef.
The heart of Camp Compassion is building meaningful connections with the amazing animals at the Refuge, including goats, sheep, chickens, turkeys, ducks, geese, cows, and one delightful guinea fowl named Frizzle! Each animal has a name, a unique personality, and a special story. They hope campers leave with a deeper understanding, respect, and love for animals of all kinds.

Photographs have a unique ability to tell a story, kindle emotions, raise awareness, and even inspire action. Experience the profound impact of nature photography both through observation of others’ work and by practicing nature photography yourself. Beyond creative expression, photography has the power to draw people together.
Bates Whitaker, Creative Content Manager at the North Carolina Wildlife Federation, will discuss the importance of nature photography, provide guidance on getting started, and highlight strategies to avoid the pitfalls of unethical wildlife photography practices. Nature photography possesses the potential for a significant positive impact, but unethical practices can also result in harm. Being well-informed about the wildlife and habitat you interact with is crucial, as it directly affects their well-being.
Topics covered include:

Ethics in Nature Photography.
Composition techniques and practices.
Tips for sharing your work responsibly.

This program is part of the Lower Haw Presents lecture series hosted by Friends of Lower Haw River and is co-sponsored by the North Carolina Wildlife Federation and the NCWF Tri-County Conservationists Chapter.
