  • 3 Day 2 Night Program

    Your three day program allows you to have access to the ropes challenge course, many of the lesson plans, plus great night time activites like astronomy, a night hike, or a campfire to ensure your days are packed from morning to night with learning, excitement, and adventure. Each day will center around an education tract plus 1 of the extended day program offerings. 

    Our kitchen staff will keep you full and fueled for fun with hot and hearty meals. You get two on day one, three meals on day two, and two more meals before departure on day three.

    Day 1 get to know skyland ranch flora and fauna as you hike, investigate wildlife, and study plants. Then have an afternoon of teambuilding entertainment and games to get to know one another better. End day one with a night hike to discover the vibrant night life of nocturnal animals. Or enjoy a star party as Skyland Ranch sits at 5,000' elevation, and with several telescopes, you will see the night sky like never before.

    Day 2 continue on your journey into the wilderness practicing outdoor skills like map and compass, hiking preparedness, and shelter building. Get drawn to the archery range and zero in on the target. Also see if you have what it takes to conquor the "high" level challenges of the ropes course. Spend your last night in camp around the campfire delighting in classic camp traditions like eating s'mores, telling stories, singing songs, or just relax with friends. 

    Day 3 resume your experiance as we delve into the challenges facing our planet and determine what you can do to help. Lessons on Climate Change, Green energy, and Traditional Ecological Knowledge allow you to better comprehend human impacts on the earth.
