Seth Dahlgren – Camp Director
Seth is back again for summer 2013! This is his fifth year running camp in Marin for Edventure More. It’s just not possible for Seth to stay away. Where else can so many kids staff and campers families included) create and learn from wonderous experiments in art and technology, talk in special languages, or play wild games with wacky names; all sacred camp traditions. For both the most seasoned Space Monkey veteran, and the wide eyed first timer, Camp Edmo and Camp EdTech are a one of a kind place.
I couldn’t be more excited about this summer’s curriculum. We’ll be revisiting our favorite technological art mediums at Camp EdTech and breaking new ground with every film festival and arcade day. This summer at Camp Edmo we’ll be learning so much from my favorite themes and projects (cosmic creations twice, stellar!)
This year also has the added bonus of our outdoor nature programs, Edmo in the Park and EdTech in the Park! I’ve been running outdoor programs with Edventure More as long as I’ve been with the company, but this is our first time hosting outdoor programs in Marin. It promises to be a summer filled with adventure, education, and as always tons of exciting surprises!”

Tax Time Fun Facts: Did you know that enrollment fees in Camp Edmo qualify as a childcare tax credit for children 12 and under? Yup, they do. Know what else? Any donation you make to Edventure More, large or small, are not only profoundly appreciated, but also fully tax-deductible.
This is our first ever camp experience and you have set a high bar. Your program is fun and educational. What I love most is your staff. They are super energetic, knowledgeable, and nice! Rachel, the director, is approachable and always available. Love her high energy and smiles! I have no doubt that my child is well cared for while at Camp Edmo.”
I have been extremely pleased with the program. My son has never showed so much excitement. In fact I wish our school had an after school program like yours.”
A very good aspect of camp for our family is that one location can accommodate two ages: Edmo for my younger one, and EdTech for the older one.”
Every day after pick-up, my daughter tells her 4 yr old brother about all the artwork she did and the interesting facts she learned that day. My son then regurgitates the information to their Dad when he comes home from work. “Dad, did you know the daddy seahorse takes care of the babies in his pouch?” Then, of course, my daughter chimes in with more details. I feel like the whole family is attending Camp Edmo!”
