The Concept of This Program

Campship Academy and Coleman have teamed up to host a full-scale camping program in the autumnal Yatsugatake mountains! Coleman will provide all the camping gear you need, including tents, mats, sleeping bags, cooking utensils, lights, and Dutch ovens, so you won't need to bring any gear! The camp will be held on the grounds of Yatsugatake Agricultural College, so safety is guaranteed. This is a packed, full-scale camping program for 3 days and 2 nights, where you can experience both camping and farm stay.

Key Features

Authentic camping experience: pitching a tent from scratch

Children will set up tents from scratch and go camping. Using a manual created for children, they will work with their peers to pitch tents, fostering cooperation. Through the camping process, they will experience collaboration with their peers and a sense of accomplishment.

Full sponsorship by Coleman products

We are supported by Coleman, an outdoor brand that advocates for "providing nature experiences to as many children as possible." The collaboration between two companies who share the same activity philosophy has been realized to deliver better experiences to children.

Interact with cows and chickens on a farm

This workshop offers hands-on experiences such as interacting with animals, observing their behavior, and touring dairy barns and chicken coops, providing insight into how everyday foods like milk and eggs are produced on farms. Participants also use freshly harvested milk and eggs from the farm to prepare their own meals, completing the full farm-to-table experience.

Fosters teamwork and independence!

Living together with friends from different places helps children develop cooperation and teamwork. At the same time, by taking care of themselves without relying on their families, they build independence and self-reliance.
