Award Winning Adventures

Thanks to our supporters, the Alice Ferguson Foundation was named the 2023 winner in the Maryland Day Camps, Hikes & Nature Discovery, and Fairs & Festivals categories in Washington Parent’s prestigious annual Parent Picks competition and a finalist in the STEM Programs and STEM Camp categories.

ADA Accessibility

A portion of our environmental campus is ADA accessible. Those areas include our Living Building, Education Pavilion, bunkhouses, wet meadow boardwalk, and the boardwalk along our Living Shoreline at Piscataway Park. The Alice Ferguson Foundation has a trail chair that can be used by individuals who need special accommodations. Special thanks to our generous donors and Chick-fil-A for providing the funds for the trail chair purchase.
