“The Organization is exempt from federal income taxes under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. Under the Code, however, income from certain activities not related to the Organization's tax-exempt purpose may be subject to taxation as unrelated business income. The Organization had no income from unrelated business activities in 2018-19 and was, therefore, not required to file Federal Form 990-T (Exempt Organization Business Income Tax Return). The Organization believes that it has appropriate support for all tax positions taken, and as such, does not have any uncertain tax positions that are material to the financial statements.”

IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy2Grp/Desc0love of nature and to do this in a way that enhances academic achievement, and inspires the joy of learning outdoors. . The 2018-19 season marks Muddy Sneakers' eleventh year of bringing an experiential format to teaching 5th-grade science curriculum at participating public schools across the Western and Piedmont regions of North Carolina. Muddy Sneakers began as a pilot program in the spring of 2007 with Brevard and Pisgah Forest Elementary Schools in Transylvania County and has grown each year to now serve 43 schools across 17 school districts in the Carolinas. Muddy Sneakers has developed an extraordinarily cost-effective, results-driven model for learning by engaging children through the natural world. Here are just a
IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0few reasons why we are unique: - Continuous exposure to the outdoor classroom (6-10 days over the course of the academic year) through utilizing a diverse portfolio of natural areas in close proximity to the school. - Strong commitment to partnering with teachers and administrators through offering opportunities to collaboration and additional partnerships with the school. - Small group focus (maximum of 12 students per instructor) - Emphasis on establishing and refining a model of excellence that produces measurable results. - Use of underutilized, protected, natural areas within 30 min of each school as outdoor classroom spaces. Unique to the Western North Carolina region, Muddy Sneakers also offers a summer day-camp to complement its' school year programs. Camp Muddy Sneakers fills a unique niche in the region's day-camp market with a goal of encouraging children to follow their imagination and curiosity as they actively engage with the natural world. Campers, ages 4-14, learn about various ecosystems through age appropriate experiential activities while exploring a multitude of sites in the region. All the sessions are led by highly qualified Muddy Sneakers naturalists with a continued commitment to small group instruction. In the summer of 2019 Camp Muddy Sneakers consolidated Transylvania and Henderson County camp programming into a single new central location at the REEB Ranch adjacent to DuPont State Recreational Forest. This gorgeous campus offers more onsite programming for younger participants and a great launching pad for older camper explorations.
