Description :

Cunning, resourceful, community-minded 

Foxes is a celebration of child passions: climbing, running, sneaking, listening, hiding.  This program is also a step into the world of competence and self-sufficiency: building skills in fire tending, shelter building and tool use.  Tracking adventures satisfy the inquisitive and creative mind at this age, providing ample opportunity for inference, story telling, deduction, pattern recognition. Foxes delivers invisible learning and healthy growth, with the volume turned up on fun. 

What you can can expect

A welcoming atmosphere, days of exploring, practicing skills, and games that teach.  Foxes operates on long-term mentoring relationships, where professional facilitators work together to identify areas for growth and development: for individuals and the group. Our model seeks to support young people in becoming resilient, capable, and service minded.  Our daily endeavors promote attributes such as:  Quiet Mind, Common Sense, Aliveness and Agility, Inquisitive Focus, Caring and Tending, Service to Community, Awe and Reverence, and Self-Sufficiency.  We foster these attributes through a set of core routines and nature based challenges.  The learning experience is dynamic, emergent, multi-sensory, and exciting.


The Winter Season requires a combination of skills to help us thrive in the snow and ice.  This is a time of magic and unpredictability.  We mount expeditions into frozen landscapes, tend fires, make shelters, and use song and story to warm ourserlves.  Our winter fires are good for grilling, and the fresh snow makes for great tracks.  This season is real-deal outdoor school :)
