The mission of Outdoor Club is to provide a safe environment for all students to explore the great outdoors.
Students can learn to appreciate the beauty around them while giving something back to the world they live in.

Group Horseback
Riding Lessons
Learn to ride in a fun, supportive environment with experienced instructors and well-trained horses. Offering both English and Western disciplines, lessons are available year-round in indoor and outdoor arenas. Whether you're stepping into the saddle for the first time or looking to refine your skills, riders of all experience levels are welcome!
Learn to garden at the HongIK EcoFarm,
a non-profit that utilizes regenerative agricultural practices to feed the community.
By volunteering, you can help make a difference in the lives of our neighbors while also caring for the earth and learning about its natural growing cycles.
All produce is donated to McHenry County food pantries.
There is nothing like some dirt and hard work to bring people together!

Nature Walks & Hikes
McHenry County is home to dozens of gorgeous nature reserves and parks. From peaceful woodland trails and scenic prairies to winding riverside paths, there are opportunities for every student to get outside, view local wildlife, and enjoy the beauty of autumn and spring. Our hikes are leisurely and relaxing; be sure to bring your camera to capture something new!

Skiing & Snowboarding at Alpine Valley
Winter is the time to get on the slopes! From December through February, come ski or snowboard with us at Alpine Valley Resort in Elkhorn, Wisonsin. We are able to offer discounted lift tickets to our students and their families. Slopes of various difficulty levels are available, as well as beginner-friendly lessons. Bring your friends to make some warm memories when the temperatures drop!
Indoor Rock Climbing
Stay active and challenge yourself during the winter months with indoor rock climbing. This full-body activity builds strength, confidence, and problem-solving skills while providing a fun way to stay moving when it's too cold to be outdoors. Come with us to try it and be surprised by what you can do!
