What is Family Nature Club?

Family Nature Club provides scheduled family time during the week, where members can work and play together outside without distractions.
Family Nature Club gatherings take place monthly from September to June, and our club leaders take charge of all the organizing of trips and activities and allow families to focus on bonding, instead of planning.
Not only will you connect as a family, but you’ll meet other families with similar values and interests and experience natural areas and activities throughout your community that you can return to again and again.

Ready to join the club? Check out the Facebook group with the button below to see what’s coming up in a community near you! The club is totally free, and you can join at any time- no long term commitment needed!

Upcoming Meetings:

Thank you for being a part of Family Nature Club. We have had to make the difficult decision to pause programming for the remainder of the 2024-2025 school year. Pending funding, we hope to resume in September. We would love to stay connected! Riveredge still has many family-oriented programs open to anyone. Go to the calendar to see what’s coming up!

Take me to the calendar!
