This exploration based, outdoor education program is for Estes Valley homeschool families and primarily geared towards lower elementary aged students.

This is a 6-week program that begins on November 3rd and ends December 15th, with a week off during Thanksgiving week.

Programming begins at Fall River Visitor Center (FRVC) every Friday at 12 PM and ends at 3 PM. We provide transportation to Rocky Mountain National Park and other nearby public lands, where children have the opportunity for free play, exploration, and educational experiences.
