Adult Classes

Students 18+ or accompanied by an adult

Supporting youth... supporting Culture

When registering for adult classes you are directly supporting our work bringing outdoor and experiential education to our underrepresented POC and LBGTQ students in schools and leadership programs.

10% of every ticket goes towards scholarships, work experience programs, internships, materials, first aid supplies, and tuition for these students. We also make a yearly donation to charities supporting indigenous youth and indigenous rights.

CLASSES WE OFFER

IMPORTANT COVID-19 Update

Due to the current condition of the pandemic in the state of California and specifically in Alameda County, we are postponing our adult classes until they can be consistently offered in a safe and healthy way for all of our students. Our earliest predictions for resuming classes for adults is Spring and Summer 2021. 

​

We can still offer custom programming for groups or pods of 8 or more. Before planning a custom program please consider that each member of your group will need to be tested and have up to date results by 3 days before the start date of the program. Once tested, each group member is asked to have no unmasked, un-distanced contact with anyone between testing and the start of the program. The health and safety of our staff and students is our number one priority. To plan a custom program please contact us at blackoakwilderness@gmail.com

​

Below is a list of our commonly offered courses for you to browse so you can be prepared to enroll once registration opens again... hope to see you sll sooner rather than later!
