Trailblazers After-School Program Winter 2025
February 3 @ 2:30 pm – 4:30 pm
Tantramar is proud to once again offer the Trailblazers program, providing children in grades K-4 with an unforgettable outdoor experience. Trailblazers uses Outdoor Education and Recreation to develop leadership skills and an environmental awareness in our young people. We use a variety of activities, like shelter building, fire starting, animal tracking and more, to keep youth engaged with the outdoors while being physically active and developing important skills.
Trailblazers begins immediately after school at Salem Elementary School on Mondays to Thursdays until 4:30pm. Students must be picked up behind Salem Elementary promptly at 4:30pm.
Trailblazers will also be offered in Dorchester at the Dorchester School on Tuesdays for children ages k-4. Again, pickup will be at 4:30pm.
The program will be run outside, regardless of the weather (with extreme exceptions), so we are asking all children to dress for the weather outside. Don’t forget your hats and mittens. Cold hands and heads are an ongoing issue. The kids will get dirty.
There will be a maximum of 15 children per group.
Register before January 30, 2025.
There is No Cost for this program and healthy snacks will be provided.
