Portland After-School Connection for Kids

Come join The PACK

Modern times are strange and challenging to say the least, especially for parents and kids.  Young or old, we all are feeling the toll of our new “normal”; a world with too much screen time and too little human interaction.  Some of this is inevitable and some screen time, valuable and necessary but we must learn to find balance–cultivating a personal relationship with nature and being outside.

Our typical daily schedule:

4:00 - 4:30 pm — Rolling drop-off time

4:30 - 5:30 pm — Time to MOVE and engage with others in trail running, hiking, and a variety of fun, physical activity-based cooperative games and challenges.

5:30 - 6 pm— Rolling pick up time
