The Junior Mountaineers · ages 7–12

Real badges, real mail, and a screen-free summer.

A reading- & nature-based snail-mail club for kids 7–12 — real badges, real mail, and three games for the road. Little mountaineers explore the outdoors, read good books, and earn embroidered patches that show up in their very own mailbox.

Sign-ups are by mail — write the club and we'll save a spot. One kid, one season, all the fun included.

What's in the mailbox

A club that comes by post

No feeds, no scrolling — just good books, big skies, and the thrill of a package with your kid's name on it.

Read, explore, earn

Junior Mountaineers chase badges for reading chapter books, naming the birds, building a fort, and learning to tie a real knot. Every badge is a small, doable adventure — the kind that gets a 7-to-12-year-old off the couch and out the door.

Ages 7–12 · $75 a season

Real patches, real mail

Log an adventure and an embroidered patch is stitched, packed by hand at club HQ, and mailed to your door. Kids pin them to a banner of their own — the same tradition their grown-ups earn all season long.

For the road

Three games for the road

Moose Match, Moose Dash, and MARSHMOOSE — a little something to play in the car, in the tent, or on a rainy afternoon. Best on a tablet or laptop.
