    SOLE stands for School Outdoor Learning Experiences, but it could also stand for SAFE Outdoor Learning Experiences, too! All of our staff are CPR and AED certified, while some also have Responding to Emergencies/First Aid, Lifeguarding, and Wilderness First Responder (WFR) certifications. We not only want your group to have a fun and educational experience, but a safe one as well!

  • #PhenologyFriday- it's the time of year that that educators re-certify for lifeguarding. Did you know that TFT full time educators get their lifeguard certifications every two years to ensure safety of participants when doing water activities such as canoeing? This process includes both skills and written testing!

  • Check out what was caught on our Snapshot Wisconsin trail camera recently! The bobcat sighted here also left some tracks along our forest trail that provided a unique opportunity for our recent students to utilize their newly learned animal tracking skills to ID the feline's massive paw prints! The snowy prints were over 3 inches in length and showcased a slow stalking gait along the trail. #animaltracks #SnapshotWisconsin #bobcats

  • #WinterWednesdays Feeling a little restless as you wait for that spring break trip to approach? You may be experiencing 'Zugunruhe' ("ZOO-gun-ROO-ah")! Zugunruhe is a term coined by German behavioral scientists to describe migratory restlessness in birds and other migratory animals. Just before and during their migratory period, birds exhibit signs of restlessness, fluttering their wings and hopping around. Scientists study this behavior in captive birds with a device called an Emlen Funnel. The bottom has an ink pad, that birds stand on, and as they flutter and hop around, the funnel's paper collar captures where the bird hopped the most. No surprise, birds hopped more towards the north during spring, and more towards the south during the fall!
