WHO WE ARE

OUR MISSION

Our mission is to build a community that reflects and helps shape the world we want for our children. We strive to instill in our children a deep sense of self-love, social & environmental responsibility, creative thinking and to hold onto the wonder of childhood. This is especially important as we navigate the tween and teen years ahead.

We believe in mixed-age learning to create a sense of community amongst our kids. They are encouraged to be kind to one another, to work together as a team and given many opportunities to show leadership and responsibility. 

 

SCHEDULE

Our group meets twice a week from September-June and stays connected over the summer, meeting for hikes, beach days, backpacking or planning for the year ahead.

​

Tuesdays- We meet at our set location in Snohomish. We follow a daily rhythm that includes recess, gathering in our tipi for poems, songs, snack and character building. The kids are then divided into two groups for nature based lessons; The Mountaineers with kids 8-13 and The Ramblers with kids 2-7.

​

Thursdays- This is our hiking or field trip day. Locations vary but the typical meet is within 30-45 minutes of Snohomish.

BOARD + COMMITTEES

The group is board operated and member driven. The board oversees the values and principles for the group. They manage the property, the business side of the group and they oversee the committees. 

There are four committees: 

• Creative 

• Social Engagement

• Lessons

• Property Maintenance
