Seattle Partner Programs

Seattle Partner Programs

The Mountaineers partners with Seattle-area youth serving organizations to deliver single or multi-day experiences designed to get youth outside.

MW Graphic.jpg

The Mountaineers works with a variety of youth serving organizations to offer customized partner programs. We call these programs Mountain Workshops. 

Mountain Workshops are single or multi-day experiences designed in collaboration with partner organizations to meet the educational goals of their group. Typically broken into 1 hour or ½ hour activity blocks, the flexible, hands-on curriculum is designed to expose youth to transferable outdoor skills and impart a desire to explore and conserve the outdoors. Bring your students to The Mountaineers for fun programs that will increase their confidence and introduce them to fun activities!

Program Offerings & Seasonal Availability

Partner programs can choose from indoor/outdoor climbing, first aid, outdoor cooking, navigation, and many other skills at our Seattle Program Center in Magnuson Park. Additionally, groups can learn to hike, snowshoe, and cross country ski at multiple offsite locations.

Sample Multi-Activity Programs

You can get your group outside on single, one-day programs or we can work with you to provide multiple activities during a week, month, or even the school year. Below is a sample of what a multiple activity experience might look like:

Seattle Program Pricing

Mountain Workshop pricing is primarily based on the size of the program, as we offer low instructor to student ratios. Rock climbing is an additional add-on price, as are programs that happen off-site from our Seattle Program Center. We also have a van that can transport up to 13 students and we can work with your group to schedule transportation for larger groups.

Financial Assistance

The Mountaineers Access Program (MAP) is a scholarship fund that subsidizes individuals or groups who otherwise would not be able to afford The Mountaineers programs.  Group scholarships are available to partner programs participating in Mountain Workshop or borrowing group gear through the Gear Library.  The Mountaineers typically awards scholarships of 30–70% of the program cost.  

Group scholarship Information

MAP is made possible by generous contributions from individuals, corporations and foundations, including the REI Foundation, Treeline Foundation and Bradley Foundation. We count on these donations from our members and partners to fulfill this very important part of our mission.
