February Break Nature Program
As the seasons start to change, we'll be sending off winter with an awesome program that focuses on the great skils that we take advantage of in the winter months. Shelter building, campfire cooking, exploration and...if we're lucky, some great snow play! Join us for winter hiking, foraging, adventure and play, and spend your winter break learning and having a great time in the woods!
Spring Break Program
Our Spring Break program is, in many ways, a great mirror to some of our summer programming. We focus on welcoming in the beauty and warmth of spring and spend a lot of time with the returning flora and fauna, learning skills and running around in light jackets for the first time in months. It's a great reprieve from school that keeps kids engaged throughout the break and helps recharge their batteries through the school year.
