A nature camp geared to adults wanting to connect and learn more about the natural world around us.  MNC has a long rich history with the Brooks Bird Club stemming back to the very beginnings of the BBC.  The club's name sake A.B. Brooks founded the Terra Alta Nature Camp back in 1929 and MNC continues to this day. Located on 18 acres of undeveloped land adjacent to Terra Alta Lake, the MNC offers birds, plants and serenity. There are many great areas to explore within a short distance from the camp, so campers can take guided day tours to special natural areas.
