Our adventure filled 2025 season is winding down successfully with our fun, educational, social, and active K-5 Adventure Club helping youth get outdoors after school Tuesday to Thursday.   We also enjoyed a successful 2025 Summer Day Camp season with 110 campers attending during the summer.  Portable climbing wall events were also popular.   Our adult and family adventures continue with bookings coming in daily for dogsledding, horse drawn sleigh rides, snowshoeing and fat tire bike rentals, and ice climbing.   We are anxious for colder weather and hope winter 25-26 is better than the last!

Our annual fixed expenses increase each year and the care of our sled dogs and draft horses is a lifelong commitment.  At Positive Energy Outdoors, our animals have forever homes.  They pull and do what they love.  They retire with their team and the people who adore them.   While the cost of dog and horse food is highest we have seen, we will continue to provide that care no matter what happens in the world around us.  

Donors like you care about animals and outdoor experiences for children.  You know that Positive Energy Outdoors provides transformative experiences in nature for local families and visitors to our region.   

Positive Energy Outdoors path ahead is promising.  Your support helps us to continue uninterrupted despite the unknowns.  Our long time goal to maintain and expand partnerships with schools and youth agencies remains.   We have exciting ideas how our unique Fredenberg Lake site will be used for programming in new and meaningful ways.

Your support helps make all of this possible.  

Thank you for donating to Positive Energy Outdoors.
