Outdoor Experiential Education and School Programs

Lazy F offers school and home-school groups outdoor, experiential, place-based programs designed to meet the needs of each group. Schools and groups can either select from some of our most popular classes - or in many cases - we can help design curriculum to relate directly to your classroom learning.

Our philosophy of outdoor education in multi-faceted. We want students to leave with or having: been engaged, excited, and inspired to continue learning; having learned both concepts and facts that will help them in their classroom learning, testing and with life applications; and gained common bonds with their classmates and teachers that help draw in group ideas and acceptance of differences.

Schools and other educational groups generally come for 2 to 3 days (but single day to 5 day stays are possible). We provide warm lodging, quality flexible food service, and a range of programming options.

At Lazy F, your school can choose a couple different approaches for your trip:
You can provide all your own programming and just use Lazy F for it's facilities, trails, food service, leader training opportunities, and curriculum resources. This option is both the most economical and if interested, you can still add in a-la-cart teambuilding, challenge course, climbing, and specific evening programs on the side
OR
You can have the Lazy F staff run the programs and activities that you select. This can take a ton of stress away from teachers, and makes your whole trip both painless and just plain fun. Our staff works well with groups of 50 or less. For us to offer full programming for group sizes between 61 and 140 require reservations made 9 months in advance.
