Saak Adventure Summer Program | 2026

Saak Adventure Summer Program is a place-based, outdoor-focused program for school-aged children (ages 6–12), rooted in exploration, movement, and connection to the Skagway community.

During the summer of 2026, Saak will offer two five-week sessions designed to get kids outside as much as possible while supporting working families with consistent, engaging care. Campers spend their days exploring local trails, participating in hands-on projects, playing team-building games, and learning through real-world experiences in and around Skagway.

Saak is built on the belief that children learn best when they are active, curious, and connected to the place they live. Our program emphasizes outdoor play, community-based learning, and social-emotional growth—creating a fun, safe environment where kids build confidence, friendships, and a lasting love of the outdoors.
