Remembering where we have been is important of understanding who we are and
where we are going. 2020 will mark our 27th anniversary, and we can honestly say
that this journey has been full of surprises and adventures!! Nick, Alex & Matt
Markoff founded Calleva in 1993 as a small summer camp. Today, Calleva is known
as an innovator in outdoor education, with 100+ school and community partners in
the DC metropolitan area. Our success is built upon the passion of our founders,
who love introducing kids to the outdoors and teaching them to achieve their
very best in every activity. Calleva was initially modeled after Valley Mill
Camp, where the Markoff brothers grew up working with their family. However,
over the years Calleva has developed its own unique brand of outdoor adventure
that encompasses summer camp, wilderness educational experiences, environmental
education and small-scale sustainable farming. Rather than headquarter all of
our activities in a single location, Calleva has created an innovative variety
of MOBILE programming, taking participants to the best parks, trails, rivers and
rocks in our region while operating an educational farm in Montgomery County’s
Agricultural Reserve.
