Family Nature Club
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 in natural spaces all over southeast Wisconsin.
- Family Nature Club gatherings take place at least once a month from September to June and are always FREE! 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:
Family Nature Club meets multiple times each month during the academic year. Check out the Riveredge Events Calendar to RSVP for one, some, or all!
