Learning should be fun—an adventure. And Wolf Ridge delivers on that, no matter the season. Here, students of all ages are sure to get a one-of-a-kind experience and education.
When you’re having fun, learning is a whole lot easier. That’s why our classes encourage students to immerse themselves in experiences that will stay with them for a lifetime.
Not only are they passionate about the environment, but our educators are intensely passionate about teaching. And it shows. Lifelong learning is fostered at Wolf Ridge and is a concept that is nurtured by our teachers. As life-long learners themselves, our educators pride themselves on taking what’s been taught in classrooms and using that to provide students with the opportunity to experience education. Study it in the classroom and experience it outside. That’s where learning becomes an adventure.
Students will be housed in either the MAC Lodge or Summit Lodge. In the West Dorm, each suite sleeps 4-8 students in two semi-private rooms, with a bathroom and shower in the room. There are five “commons” areas where groups can gather, some of which feature large stone fireplaces and views of Mystical Mountain or Sawmill Valley. Summit Lodge features two spacious lobbies for group gatherings and dorm rooms with a private bath. Each room contains bunk beds that sleep 6-8 people.
Whether they’re coming in from a long day outside or getting ready for the day, students can satisfy their appetites in the Fireplace Dining Room or in the Lake Superior Dining Room. Here, they’ll enjoy a range of delicious menu options, including seasonal food freshly harvested on campus from the Wolf Ridge Organic Farm.
Wolf Ridge provides a dining experience that offers menu items to accommodate vegetarians (no red meat, poultry, or fish) and in turn providing a whole protein at every meal through combinations of other items, e.g. beans and rice or grains and dairy. Wolf Ridge is not able to fully accommodate a vegan diet and asks the participant to bring items to supplement their personal needs. We also offer gluten-free alternatives at every meal.
Our food service remains at the ready to discuss supplements and what may be needed. For allergies that are not addressed by vegetarian or gluten-free conditions please contact our food service manager, Zack Bates, at zack.bates@wolf-ridge.org or 218-353-7414 ext 117.
Programs are offered year-round. Please contact us for available dates.
We do everything we can to keep our school rates as low as possible for your students. The price below reflects the total cost per person while at Wolf Ridge, including all instruction and activities, meals, and lodging.
Most schools pay for the trip with a combination of fundraising, community support, and direct costs to students.
Your belief in the power of this experience combined with the commitment to make the trip happen is key. We look forward to partnering with you to elevating classroom-taught principles through hands-on, real-world experiences!
