History

Since I can recollect, my dream was to one day live and teach in the outdoors. In 2003, I formed a public non-profit called Nature Awareness and Wilderness Sports Programs (NAWS) and my dream was born. In the years since, my wife Molly and I have added a program called Coyote Trails School of Nature. Here we teach kids, teens, families and adults the benefits and wisdom gained through nature study and wilderness skills. These skills run much deeper than just cool things to do in the woods. We found through our years of extensive wilderness travel that in the solitude of nature one gains deep personal insights and a renewed sense of peace. This program exists so that kids of all ages may experience their own inner peace and touch that true connection with the natural world.
All our best,
Joe and Molly Kreuzman - (and Takoda the Dog)

We wish to thank all of our partners and donors, and most importantly those who seek the Truth - our students.
