Tracker Volunteers
Many of you have volunteered to work this summer – and that’s great! Thank you!
As of May 5th, we have finished selections for the May Standard & Scout classes and have kept several of you on the back-up list, “just in case.”
For those of you who have previously taken Advanced Standard and/or Advanced Tracking & Awareness, we are currently looking for several good people to help us as Volunteers for these two courses in June.
Advanced Standard runs from June 1-6th; and Advanced Tracking & Awareness runs from June 7-13th.
If you are interested in volunteering for either or both courses in this back-to-back, please email volunteer@trackerschool.com or call the Tracker office at 609-242-0350.
More Classes are FULL!
Hey Everyone!
Just to let you know that the following three classes: Advanced Tracking; Standard; and Advanced Standard; are all CLOSED, and each has a sizable waiting list.
The other three Standard courses offered this year; in August, September, and November, still have a few openings for new Tracker students. And, the October "Back-to-Back" is filling up quickly as well, so hurry!
With the speed at which all of our classes are filling up lately, we strongly recommend that if you are interested in taking a course - register as soon as possible.
Although Tom and the Tracker School staff wish we could accomodate everyone - we've got to maintain reasonable class sizes to protect the integrity of your learning experience. Thanks.
New Tracker Gear!
Hey Everyone!
We’ve just received some cool new Tracker Gear – including hats, shirts, and some awesome Organic T’s. Take a look!
T3, Mud, and Sharp Objects - what's not to love?
T3's Awesome New Classes!
Hey Gang –Tommy's got three new classes coming up this summer. His last class, "Photography Through the Eye of the Tracker" in California was a great success and I expect these to be just as exciting!
Take a look:
"Primitive Fishing Techniques" June 15 & 16, 2008, at the Primitive Camp in Ocean County, NJ. Prepare to get wet and dirty as you explore with T3 various techniques for gathering food from a multitude of water sources. SCHOOL NOTE: CLASS IS FULL!
The Throwing Arts – July 3-5, 2008 in Primitive Camp
This class is for anyone interested in maximizing their ability to use one of man’s most primitive, yet effective hunting weapons. By the end of class you’ll learn how to be a more instinctive thrower with a better understanding of how the throwing arts apply to primitive living.
Tomahawk Extravaganza – July 24-26, 2008 in Primitive Camp
While it’s technically not a primitive weapon, the tomahawk holds a special place in the heart of any true throwing arts practitioner. Tommy says that this class is going to be a combination of honing your skills and "playtime" with sharp objects.
As you know, it's the gratitude and joy that Tommy brings to everything he does, which makes T3’s own dynamic brand of teaching both exciting and insightful. I am delighted that he'll be sharing those talents with all of you. Sign up soon.
All Good Medicine,
Tom

Honoring Perry with Scholarship
At the request of friends and family, a memorial scholarship in honor of our friend and fellow Tracker, John Perry, who passed away recently, is being established through the Tracker Non-Profit organization, Children of the Earth Foundation. Perry began taking Tracker classes this summer and embraced what he learned with enthusiasm, taking additional classes and already coming back to volunteer. His kind and generous spirit will be missed. Perry greatly valued what the Tracker School was teaching so, in his honor, an annual scholarship will be awarded to help a youth or teen attend Coyote Tracks, the Tracker youth program. Through this scholarship, the skills of the Tracker School will be passed on to future generations, a fitting tribute to Perry. If you would like to make a donation to the John Perry Memorial Scholarship fund, please send checks payable to COTEF to Children of the Earth Foundation, PO Box 607, Waretown, NJ 08758. Donations may also be made online at www.cotef.org. Please make sure to include Perry’s name on donations.

NOW ACCEPTING INTERNSHIP APPLICATIONS!
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to spend an extended period of time focusing on “living the life” you learn about in your Tracker classes? Have you ever wished that you could find a way to truly immerse yourself in the skills you’ve learned? If so, now is your chance! Tracker School is now accepting applications for upcoming Internship terms, and we’d love to see one from you.
Our Internship Program provides an opportunity for qualified students to work with the school for a six month period, providing first-hand experience in what it takes to run a world-renowned wilderness survival school.
During their term Interns will develop a well-rounded set of survival skills, as well as real-world skills in leadership, organization, people management and facilities logistics. Mentorship time with Instructors allows each Intern to gain supervised, practical training in both the physical and spiritual skill of survival.
Interns are selected through an application process, and applicants must have completed at least the Standard class, plus one additional class, and must have Volunteered for at least two classes before applying.
For your application, or if you have any questions about the program, e-mail intern@trackerschool.com or call our office at 609-242-0350.
If you have previously completed an Internship application and would like to be considered for upcoming terms, please e-mail and let us know.
We look forward to hearing from you soon!
