Weekend Programs

Teen Urban Conifers: November 14th, 2026

November 14th Saturday, 11:00 AM - 3:00 PM Ages 13-17 Seattle, WA $80 ($60 for students currently enrolled in a weekly Ignite program)

With the Salish Sea and the Olympic mountains as the backdrop, teens learn to identify trees, plants, birds, and wildlife tracks while gaining connection with the natural world through playing games in the forest and field. There will be an opportunity to learn safe knife skills and the art and importance of fire building and community building with other teens. Teens gain a stronger awareness of their own capabilities while exploring and becoming comfortable in the beauty and gift of the PNW.

This camp is an hour longer than usual by request from the teens! If your student would prefer the shorter experience of 11:00-2:00, that can be accommodated.

Please have your teen bring their own backpack with water bottle and lunch.

*Snacks provided may contain allergens.
