Our campers, staff, and parents are called Trackers. Whether we\u2019re fishing, learning archery, or role-playing as a Wizard, we are always Tracking\u2014being mindful, observing the world around us, paying attention to subtle clues, and learning to be truly helpful. A Tracker adventures with their Trackers Team with the Trackers Code.<\/p>

We call all of this the Game of Tracking, which youth can continue playing at home and with friends.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    The Trackers Code is the heart of our game. All Trackers agree to follow the Code when attending our programs. The Trackers Code is simply a way for kids to learn that having a greater goal in life leads to perseverance and strength. The Code is made up of the Mission, Purpose, Compass, and Action Call.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    The Trackers mission is simple. It is brave and bold. We let youth know that we care about their future and the future of the world we live. At Trackers, our mission is to:<\/p>

    Save The World!<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

    The Purpose describes the world we are saving with our Mission. It is a map for the Game of Tracking. It By letting youth know we rely on them, we tap into deeper wells of resilience and grit. At Trackers, our Purpose is:<\/p>

    • Care for Family<\/strong> whatever form it takes.<\/li>
    • Care for the More Than Human World<\/strong> to include every aspect of nature.<\/li>
    • Care for Many Generations Beyond Us<\/strong> to value those who come before and after.<\/li>
    • Care for the Silent & Invisible<\/strong> to create space for that which is quiet.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

      If the Purpose is a map for the Game of Tracking, we find our way with the Compass. At Trackers, our Compass is:<\/p>

      • Pay Attention<\/strong> to the world and its wonderful puzzles by tracking.<\/li>
      • Be Truly Helpful<\/strong> to become a true caretaker for everyone.<\/li>
      • Respect<\/strong> to adapt to the true nature of the wilderness.<\/li>

        While a Tracker navigates with the Compass, the Action Call starts us on our journey. At Trackers, our Action Call is:<\/p>

        • Be Ready<\/strong> by training in essential outdoor skills.<\/li>
        • Be a Caretaker<\/strong> by caring for other people, creatures, and many generations.<\/li>

          By joining Trackers, youth, Guides, and Guardians agree to follow the Trackers Code. While Tracking is inherently fun and works like a game at our camps, we hope it supports families to deepen their connections and care for each other and the greater world around them.
