Open to men aged 21 and older! Reconnect to your spirit of adventure, join a group of men to experience the wild side of nature, test your skills, and renew your instincts. Gather around the fire drumming, sharing life’s victories and challenges with a group of men. You will be guided by two leaders to explore nature and rediscover the sources of your power, independence, confidence and how to apply your hidden resources to conquer the obstacles you encounter in life; like the wolf.

Hosted by Michael Gulbrandsen (Nature’s Whispers; expert outdoorsman) and Dr. John Ryder (the Positive Science Center; psychologist)

Each month the group will gather at, either, the beautiful Enchanted Forests of Patterson, NY or at California Hill State Forest in Carmel, NY.

The May gathering will be held at: The PSC (Positive Science Center) 170 Waywayanda Court, Carmel, NY 10512
