Military Families in Nature
Our Military Family Days are open to active-duty, veteran, gold-star, or other service-member families with children, with or without any and all disabilities.
Each month’s event focuses on nature related themes! Daily activities include guided hikes, team building, low ropes, high ropes course, zip lines, canyon crawl, equine-assisted learning, and an opportunity for families to spend fun and therapeutic time together in nature.
Military Family Day Goals
- Encourage military and veteran families to spend time together in nature while learning, exploring and healing as a family unit
- Assist families in stress reduction, communication and teamwork
- Provide a safe place for military and veteran families to spend time together without an additional financial burden
