Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie Hiking Trip – 5/16/26

We’re spending our springtime days with adventure on the brain! Join us for a trip to Midewin National Tallgrass Prairie for a day of hiking and picnicking.
Transportation provided. Meet at Fox Center. 

April and May is calving season, so there's a chance we'll see some baby bison at the prairie!
 

Hikers under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a registered adult.

Adult-Child Archery Evening – 5/15/26

Hey, junior archers! Want to teach your adults a thing or two about shooting a bow and arrow? Our trained instructors will help you and your adult learn the ropes of this fun adventure sport. Registration is for one child and one adult. Please register your child archer only, not their adult.

American Sign Language for Kids (4/9-5/28/26)

**Please Note** Due to some scheduling conflicts, the dates for this program have changed. They will be taking place on Thursdays rather than Wednesdays.

 

Brand new this year! Join our immersive ASL course taught by native signers. This class focuses on basic signs so your kids can gain confidence in their 
communication in and out of the classroom.

Our adult class is taught separately at the same time, so you can learn as a family. See the Adult Leisure and Lifestyle section for those classes.
