Sword and Sorcery Adventures
Summer Fun Guaranteed!
On our all-day adventures we create an environment where kids can be kids.
Students ages 4-14 can explore the neighborhood and nearby natural areas with experienced outdoor guides or stay at base camp and participate in games and activities. Our programs are student-led; explorations and activities are determined by what students want to learn, and what they think will be the most fun!

Summer Field Trips
On Tuesdays and Thursdays, we travel to distant lands (local parks) for new and unique adventures.
On those days, we depart from Rose City Park at 9:30am, so please ensure your student arrives no later than 9:00am in order to ensure they have time to use the restrooms and participate in safety talks prior to departure.
On travel days, we will endeavor to return to Rose City Park at 4:30pm to allow for traffic delays. If for any reason we are delayed beyond 4:45pm, guardians will be contacted via text to be made aware of the delay.
If your child(ren) require a booster or car seat, you will be required to provide POE with whichever safety seat your student needs, with their name on it. These items can either be spares given to POE to use throughout the summer, or your child(ren)’s standard seat which will be handed off at drop off and returned at pick up.
