The Art of Mentoring
The Art of Mentoring is an innovative five-day overnight educational program designed to help individuals, families, and communities create healthier, happier environments to grow in.
The Art of Mentoring Class has concurrent programs running for adults and children, designed so all ages can participate in nature based learning, and can learn from each other, learn together, and share their experiences as parents, children, family and friends.
Adult Programs
The curriculum provides adult participants with the knowledge, tools, and techniques to create a powerful culture of nature connection in the home, classroom, or workplace. It has proven to be a successful mentoring strategy resulting in:
- Creative, productive communities
- Happy, healthy children
- Strong values and morals
- Hope and inspiration

Curriculum for kids includes nature based programming, camp games, and wilderness living skills.
