Bay Area Rangers Guild: Scout Team Homeschool
A Weekly Nature Immersion Course for Homeschoolers
Rangers walk silently in the forest. Rangers act as scouts for the village. They are keen trackers and well versed in wilderness survival, bows and the ways of the animals.
Join the Rangers Guild
We hone our awareness and journey into the wild places. Train to fire a bow by steady arm and keen aim. Learn to travel with ease through the wilderness with only the clothes on your back. Walk silently and invisibly through the forest while navigating by the sun and stars. Craft your own tools and shelter. And most importantly, read the subtle signs of nature, honing your intuition and awareness of the natural world. This program is a collaboration between instructors and participants.
