History Camp for Children

Looking for something fun to do over Spring Break? Join us for three fun filled days of history themed day camp at the beautiful Shelton McMurphey Johnson House in Eugene!

On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday you can experience hands-on activities, games, cooking and outside time in a lovely Victorian mansion setting. Learn about the owners of the home through time, about pioneer life and nature on the Skinner’s Butte just behind the house. We will do butter churning, play pioneer games, sewing, fun art projects and more!

This camp is being jointly presented by the SMJ House and SCEC. We will have instructors from both organizations bringing interesting and engaging activities for ages 6 – 10. All genders of children are welcome (children can wear whatever dress up clothing they like!) Children bring their own lunch and water bottle. 

March 24th – 26th. Hours are 9am to 2pm.

Pre-registration only, sibling discounts apply. Please see details and registration link at this page:
