Navigate the Night Sky

An Outdoor Learning Experience

For 10 days you are invited to watch a couple minute video and complete an outdoor activity to build an understanding of how to navigate the night sky.

My name is Ted and I have a heart condition called Long QT Syndrome. My brothers and I were campers at Camp Del Corazon in the 1990's and have continued to come back as cabin counslors and waterfront staff.  Like all Camp Staff at Camp Del Corazon I have a camp name, it's Mr. T.

Camp Del Corazon has provided me and many other children with heart disease a CAMP EXPERIENCE.  So many individuals have given time, energy and resources to make this CAMP EXPERIENCE possible. I will be forever grateful for their philanthropy and hope to PAY it Forward by bringing a CAMP EXPERIENCE to you. This experience is free and it is my hope that you will find this experience valuable and either share it with someone else or PAY FORWARD some positivity in YOUR neighborhood, in YOUR part of the world, in honor of those that have made a difference in YOUR story  Please ignore the donate now and register now button at the bottom of the page. (Donations do go directly to the non-profit Camp Del Corazon and are appreciated but this experience is free :) 

At Camp Del Corazon we have the opportunity to see how much bigger our world is than us,  our heart condition or any problem for that matter. In the spirit of CAMP, I am encouraging you to get outside, look up and learn to make the best of life.

So for 10 days, stick with me, Mr. T    Enjoy :)
