Teen Skills n’ Chill
The Teen Skills n’ Chill program is a great opportunity for teens (ages 13-17) to continue learning and growing with Pine in a way that fits their schedules, or to get involved for the first time!
Join us weekly to hang out with friends, be challenged by experienced mentors, and grow your knowledge of nature and outdoor skills. Sip on wild crafted teas, make cool crafts, laugh with friends, and learn a ton. It’s an awesome way to keep the connection alive to the outdoors during the high school years.
Combine it with our 4-weekend-a-year Teen Wilderness Adventure program to get the full Pine experience!
Sessions will take place in our East and West End park locations, as well as at the Pine office.
Program content highlights:
- Dive into advanced naturalist knowledge
- Get to know parks at both ends of the city
- Work on long term craft projects
- Gain mentorship skills from a number of Pine Leaders
- Be supported to independently learn between sessions
