Outdoor School (Ages 8 to 13)

Adventure Out

*Please note that all in-city full day programs are now referred to as Wilderkids

Immerse yourself in nature! Our out-of-city program offers kids the chance to deepen their connection to nature and advance their outdoor skills in a wilderness setting. With many acres to explore, we wander through forests and wetlands, harvest plants, make tools, build structures, and more.

By adventuring out the city for a full day, participants have an opportunity to tackle larger and longer-term projects, practice skills they’re unable to in city parks, form strong connections with peers and mentors, and develop a deeper understanding of their local environment.
