Connection to nature, others, and self.

PROGRAM OPTIONS

  • In-School Outdoor Program Development

    The perfect partner for incorporating recreational and educational outdoor time, promoting different learning styles, enhancing group culture and connectivity and setting your program apart from others.

    From physical recreation and outdoor skills, to leadership in conservation advocacy, we can help your group develop program goals and implement experiences.

  • Camps & After School Outdoor Programming

    Annual camps are offered in 1-4 week periods throughout the year. After school programs are located at different locations focused on the Spring and Fall semesters, typically running after school hours until around 6:00pm.

  • Custom Trips

    The perfect way to create an unforgettable outdoor adventure for your group. Tackle a challenge together, celebrate a milestone, connect with a new group or rejuvenate an existing one. Options include hiking, biking, kayaking, fishing, camping and more.

THE 37 NORTH WAY

Our camps and after school programs are focused firstly on connection – connection to nature, connection to others, and connection to self. While students will learn outdoor recreation and outdoor education skills, that is a byproduct of our systems rather than the focal point of our sessions.

We believe that the power of the outdoors has deeper potential to help our youth gain independence, leadership, and other life-long learning skills with hands on learning in the outdoors.
