Kathy Marty, director at Camp Windy Hill, assists 6-year-old Dean Lanier with his astronaut helmet during space camp. Marty offers several themed summer camps at her rural Washougal 5 acre property.
The astronaut backpacks are created from boxes, tin cans, tin foil, paper and other household items. Campers typically bring some supplies, and director Kathy Marty collects the rest throughout the year.
Camp Windy Hill has several offerings during summer and winter break. Here, participants create masks and astronaut self-portraits at the Outer Space Adventures camp.
Savannah Roblin, left, and Erin Connelly proudly display their astronaut self portraits, paper mache helmets and backpacks. The space suits were created from Tyvek paint suits, and the arms are made out of dryer vents.
Participants put the finishing touches on their paper mache astronaut helmets.
Campers create art projects in a crafts cottage at Camp Windy Hill. Marty is offering seven camps this summer.
Although it’s only a 10-minute drive from the Washougal Safeway, Kathy Marty’s home feels like a world away.
Nestled on five acres, complete with barn, dedicated crafts cottage, large open fields, a backyard stream, rope swings and a black lab named Molly, it is a child’s dream.
