2025 Tracker Family Camp, July 27 - August 1
Event lasts 4 days 21 hoursWelcome to our Tracker Family Camp - a fun-filled wilderness skills week in the Pine Barrens Primitive Camp! Our event takes place Sunday-Friday, July 27 - August 1. We look forward to recalling the Old Ways, sitting around the campfire with friends and family, sharing stories, gratitude and laughter! In 2018 Tom Brown Jr. ran the first Tracker Family Camp. Since then we are thrilled to continue the tradition of having families, teens and little ones in the Pine Barrens Primitive Camp, learning directly from the places where Tom learned from Grandfather Stalking Wolf. We will practice basic survival skills including shelter building, lost-proofing, fire-making, rock tools, cordage and camouflage. We plan to offer more adventures tracking in the Pines as well as more “edge” experiences for returning parents and youth to push their skills. Teens aged 13 and over are welcome to attend without parents and participate in special adventures and survival overnight for teens only!
