Guilds

Rangers & Wilders In the Trackers Homeschool Outdoor Adventure Program you choose a Guild. You could be focusing on making a bow and archery with our Rangers Guild or planting a garden and working with goats in our Wilders Guild. Simply contact Molly after registration to notify her as to what Guild your child wishes to attend.

Ages 4-5 occurs Thursdays. They are in the Rovers Guild and have different activities and times than the older campers. Learn more about our program for ages 4-5.

Mariners Guild sessions are a seperate registration and cost than Rangers and Wilders and are currently only for ages 10-14. Students that enroll for the entire year can attend Mariners Guild sessions at no additional cost as long as we get advanced notice.

Hoodriver Homeschool We present combined program for Hood River homeschool programs one Saturday a month. Learn more about our Hood River Homeschool.

Times and Dates

Ages 6-14 homeschool camp occurs every Wednesday from 9am-4pm.

Ages 4-5 camp occurs every Thursday from 9am-1pm.

You can join a guild for a 1-day trial, a 4-week session, 12-week term for the entire year. You can join anytime and we also offer specific dates for curriculum themes. Check out the schedule.

The more weeks you register for the less you pay per day. 1-day trails* allow you to see if the program is right for you. 1-year registration allows you to save.

Please Note To insure we have the correct ratio of instructors to students we must ask that campers attend the weeks consecutively from the first day of class. If you miss a day we count it as an absence and no refunds or makeup days are allowed.

Rave Reviews

"This has been the best camp! And, we've gone to a few! I have been telling everyone about it. I don't think you could have developed a more perfect camp experience for my son. Seriously… Honestly, I cannot think of enough words to describe how great this week was for Ethan. He was engaged, enthusiastic and exhausted at the end of the day. The storyline that his group developed was amazing and kept him thinking and connecting every night. I love the enthusiasm of Stewart. The patience and guidance he has with kids is inspiring. He has the ability to command a group of excitable kids safely and in a way that gets them thinking, creating and using their imaginations-- which is an under utilized skill (in my opinion). I loved how he made the whole camp adaptable to what the kids were interested in, and had the flexibility to flow with it. Fantastic job you guys!!!" -Forest Ninja Parent, Age 6

"As a city dweller, I take pride that my son still has an opportunity to catch frogs, go fishing & be outdoors. By far one of the best camps he's attended." -Forest, Fishing, Fly and Reel Parent, Age 7

"They are the best I have seen! Smart, passionate, energetic, funky and caring." -Little House: Wilders Homestead Parent, Age 6

"A totally new experience. Like Junior Outward Bound." -Welcome to Middle Earth Parent, Age 5

"He's been proud to share new things he's learned with whole family. He specified, however, that he's not learning like school, he's "discovering." Thank you!" -Welcome to Middle Earth Parent, Age 8

"Surpasses any experiences with camps so far; this is our first Trackers Camp." -Stealth, Archery & Wilderness Survival Parent, Age 9
