The Adventure Environmental Learning Center—"Camp Adventure"—is an outdoor environmental education facility that has served Muncie and the surrounding communities since 1994. It is owned by the Muncie Optimist Club, and operated and maintained by Muncie Community Schools. Every year, MCS and schools from surrounding county educational systems send thousands of children from kindergarten through 12th grade to our outdoor facility. This partnership between public and non-profit entities has provided recreational and educational benefits to students, as well as the wider community.

Camp Adventure offers a variety of programs, including natural sciences, primary and low ropes courses, and team building programs. Since 1994, when MCS began operating programs at Camp Adventure, more than 143,000 students have participated in camp activities. Dozens of community and school groups have also taken advantage of this unique facility. Whether you are a teacher, youth group, or civic organization, there is something at Camp Adventure for you!
