Welcome to Alaska Outdoor Ventures

Catholic Homeschool Extracurricular Education and Adventure

Alaska Outdoor Ventures for Catholic homeschoolers is a mother led group that organizes activities for our families that includes venture exploration, sports, practicing wilderness skills and also occasionally includes various learning opportunities. Our primary purpose is to create community and support among homeschooling catholic families and provide friendship and adventure for our children. We are an interior Alaskan based group, not tied to any specific parish but are part of the Fairbanks diocese. We may stay localized or travel more for our activities, as far as Denali or Delta Junction, though it is based on the group interest and demand. Also based on group interest and demand, we may occasionally plan other educational opportunities for our children to do together. These other extracurricular learning opportunities will revolve around primordial life skills, trades and subsistence skills development- anything involving the outdoors and hands-on skills. If there are any classes teaching a skill the group would like the kids to learn (or simply a field trip!) and we want to go together, each family can cover that cost either out of pocket or through their individual homeschool programs allotment. Some examples of our activities and learning opportunities are: camping, backpacking, biking, hiking, skiing, nature trail running, wilderness survival, swimming, exploring nature, plant identification, farming, rock climbing, canoeing, fishing, hunting, archery, self defense, fitness, outdoor play (parks and playground days) crafting, trapping, skiing, carpentry and any number of various skills and fun involving the outdoors.  Bring your kids on adventures and give them opportunities to make like-minded friends in a healthy and positive environment that sustains your families faith and supports your catholic values.
