What do kids do during the club?

Activities may include outdoor games, exploration, movement, and hands-on challenges. The specific program can vary, so contact Oakland Trail Club for details about current activities and what children can expect.

What should my child bring?

Comfortable clothes for outdoor activity, weather-appropriate layers, and a water bottle are useful starting points. Ask Oakland Trail Club about any additional supplies, food, or gear needed for the program.

Does my child need outdoor experience?

No special outdoor background is needed for children to get involved. The club is intended to give kids opportunities to participate, learn by doing, and build skills through activities suited to the program.

How can I learn about schedules and enrollment?

Contact Oakland Trail Club to ask about available days, program details, and how to enroll. Share your child’s age and scheduling needs so the team can point you toward the most relevant information.

What happens in bad weather?

Weather plans depend on the activity and conditions. Before your child attends, ask Oakland Trail Club how schedule changes are shared, what clothing is recommended, and whether activities move indoors or are rescheduled.

Outside, After School

Oakland Trail Club gives Oakland kids a reason to head outdoors after the school day. Through active adventures and hands-on challenges, children can explore, move, and practice new skills in a supportive group setting.

We believe outdoor time can make room for curiosity, confidence, and connection. Activities are designed to help kids participate at their own pace, learn by doing, and enjoy time with peers beyond the classroom.
