Young Fox Walkers and Fox Walkers

​​SCHOOL YEAR PROGRAMS

BURTON EDUCATIONAL PRESERVE 
NEVADA CITY

Jump to:  Early Winter (1/4-2/12)  |  Late Winter (2/22-3/26)  |  Spring Break (3/29-4/2)  |  Spring (4/12-5/28)

​
Summer 2021 Day Camps!

Fox Walkers in-person, outdoor programs are back! 

Our Fox Walkers Youth Programs introduce Earth Skills, a blend of the ancient arts of tracking, wilderness survival, and nature awareness. Through our programs, a re-thinking of our connection to nature begins to occur. Nature is not simply a resource that we control as a product, but a relationship we must cultivate. Through hands-on skills, games, songs and storytelling, we create an "invisible school", where kids learn directly from the Earth while having tons of fun, laughing and playing with each other.

​
 Our curriculum is inspired from Indigenous values and the Old Ways Earth Skills, largely learned from the Tracker School and through each Instructor's own "dirt time" living these skills. ​

Payment Options:
  • Online with credit card at time of registration for deposit or payment in full.  If paying deposit only with a credit card, balance is due by cash or check only (sorry, no credit cards accepted on-site) on the first day of program before class.
  • Deposits by cash or check are expected at our office within 10 days of registration in order to hold the space.  Make checks out to 4EEE and mail to PO Box 1823, Nevada City, CA 95959.  Include your child's name, program name and date in order to ensure proper credit. Full tuition balance is due on or before the first day of program at the start of class.
  • Charter School families with pre-approved funding from the school select the Charter School Checkout payment plan.  A $20 administration fee is required.  Parents or Guardians are responsible for all fees not paid for by Charter School.
  
Missed Days Due to Vacations or Sickness or Snow/Rain:
If you planned time away from your 4EEE program that exceeds 2 missed classes, advise the office AT THE TIME OF REGISTRATION.  We can not provide make-up classes at any time.  If your child becomes ill and will miss more than 2 classes, please call the office. 
We can not provide reimbursements for the rare event that heavy snow/storm/smoke requires program cancellation, or if parents/guardians opt to not bring their child to program due to weather conditions.  

Charter Schools we have worked with previously include the following.  Note that you are responsible to obtain pre-approval for funding from your school; we do not do this.  Once we receive approval, we will note this on your account and invoice the school directly once services are delivered.
