Come join us for a fun-filled, family friendly day of volunteering at Wildwood!
It’s the perfect opportunity to give back to our community and make a positive impact for campers. Whether you’re a nature lover, need volunteer hours, or simply want to lend a helping hand, this event is for you! Join us as we work together to move and improve the garden, prep the dining hall for eager diners, get campfire circles ready for s’mores, and more!
We’ll provide lunch and drinks as well as the tools to get the job done. The day will be broken up into two work sessions: 10:00 AM -12:30 PM and 1:00 PM -4:00 PM. We hope you’ll join us for the whole day, but we totally understand if you can only attend one. 🙂
The details:
Teens age 14+ are welcome in small groups (up to 10) with a responsible adult chaperone
Kids age 6-13 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian
Please wear comfortable, weather appropriate clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty.
Kids need to run wild! We’re opening our gates to make it happen. Explore the outdoors together at Free Range Friday at Wildwood.
Unstructured, uncrowded, and unbelievably beautiful adventure awaits! Kids need time to roam, explore, imagine, and enjoy time in nature. Unstructured time in nature with mud and dust and sky ignites the body, mind and spirit of kids (and their grown ups.) Free-Range Friday is your invitation to let your kids run and hike and adventure at their own pace and within your own comfort-level in a wide-open place.
