TriDistrict Community Education

A new and exciting program that opens the door for more young people to discover the joy and confidence that comes from being outside. Every student belongs here. Your Outdoors is an after-school program for 5th-12th graders that welcomes youth of all backgrounds, free of charge. From learning to build a safe & effective fire to exploring trails on snowshoes & kick sleds, this session of Your Outdoors will engage students in hands-on activities that make the outdoors feel accessible and exciting. What to Know Before the Program: Come dressed for the outdoors! Wear appropriate clothing for the forecasted weather (and something you don’t mind getting dirty). Use this helpful guide for dressing for Minnesota winters. Cost/Transportation Attendance for this program is free, but space is limited. Please register to help Dodge plan for supplies and allow us to provide a roster that includes students' names, emergency contact numbers, and more. Students can take activity bus #196 to Dodge on the scheduled dates. However, please note that there will be no transportation home; students must be picked up by 5:30PM at the Marie Avenue entrance. Alternatively, you can drop your child off at Dodge starting at 4 PM.
