Who should take this course?
LLE is a new take on our hands-on STEM based exploration of the lake, environment, and ecosystem around Wayzata Bay. This course will be on the water and outside all day, getting away from the classroom, aboard a dedicated fleet of paddleboards. Sailors and non-sailors should be interested in getting their hands dirty and exploring another angle on problem solving, and adventure sports. We’ll look into what makes the world tick, move, and grow around us.

How are the classes structured?
Each day of the STEM Adventure will feature a new lesson element within our week’s theme. Lessons are geared towards hands-on exploration with short classroom periods and team building/games for class cohesion. We’ll have fun, get dirty, and explore the world around us.

Why is this class more expensive than the other Looney Lake Lab option?
Pricing reflects more advanced materials, tools, and adventures in the full day class - in addition to watersports equipment use.

Do I need sailing skills? What should I bring?
This is a non-sailing class; however, you should come prepared to be in and out of the lake during class, so wearing a swimsuit is a must! Also recommended: towel, change of clothes, sun protection, water shoes, and a backpack to contain the mayhem. All other materials for lessons are provided. PFDs are required when in and on the water, but will be provided for those that do not have one.
