Welcome to Chewelah Peak Learning Center!
 |
|
|
Chewelah Peak is a year-round facility located 50 miles north of
Spokane. The Center sits at the 4,000-foot level of Chewelah
Peak on 20 acres of wilderness land. It first opened its doors in
September 2003 to support outdoor learning for K-12 students in eastern
Washington. Chewelah Peak Learning Center offers a wide array
of amenities to K-12 school groups, higher education institutions and
other organizations that share in our mission.
Chewelah Peak plays host each summer to AWSP’s student
leadership camps as well as year-round outdoor science
education programs that offer students exciting hands on learning
opportunities aligned to state standards. The facility is also often
used for team-building exercises, as well as conferences, picnics, ski
& stay groups, retreats, and other tourist
accommodations.
Long range plans include adding
a Gazebo, The Gathering Place (large meeting and
conference center), Dorm C, Chalet, Auditorium and additional
outdoor campfire and classroom
areas.
