New Jersey
4EEE Family and Teen Programs
In the homeland of the Lenape (Lenapehoking), 4EEE was born out of the Children of the Earth Foundation and the foundational Teachings of The Tracker School through Tom Brown Jr. passed down from Grandfather Stalking Wolf, of Southern Lipan Apache Lineage.
We are grateful for the opportunity to continue returning to the Primitive Camp, home of the Tracker School, and where Tom spent the majority of his childhood years learning these skills.
We’ve held programs at various locations in New Jersey over the years, more recently returning to the Mohican Outdoor Centre in the Delaware Watergap, where some of the first Coyote Tracks family and children programs were first run almost 25 years ago.
Support the Tracker Primitive Camp
As we honor the legacy of Tom Brown Jr., we also look to the land that he shared with us. The Primitive Camp has been an important site for Tracker students for over 40 years. From the Lenape people to the enduring legacy of Grandfather Stalking Wolf and now Tom Brown Jr., this land has long been a site of learning, growth, and connection with the earth and each other.
We want to ensure the continued sharing of knowledge and healing that Grandfather’s Pine Barrens Primitive Camp has given to all of us for decades continues for generations to come.
We need your support at this critical time to ensure continued use of the Primitive Camp!
Your generous contribution will directly support the continuation of vital programs and preserve the Primitive Camp for future generations. Together, we can honor the rich history of this land and ensure it remains a sacred place of learning and connection.
