March Break Nature Retreat
Our March Break Nature Retreat is the perfect opportunity for families and individuals to escape the city, unplug, meet new friends, and connect with nature. Each day holds new adventures as participants wander through quiet snowy forests, cozy up by the fire to tell stories, relax in the sauna, share newly learned skills and more. Throughout the retreat, children and adults have the chance to spend time apart to embark on their own learning journeys. Then they come back together to share meals and celebrate their day as a community.

Program content highlights (activities are tailored to be age and stage appropriate):
- Snowshoeing
- Wildlife tracking
- Forest games and adventures
- Wilderness crafts, such as felting and natural basket making
- Survival skills, such as traditional fire-making and navigation
- Storytelling in the lodge and around the fire
- Mentoring techniques
- Group nature activities and games
