Everest Academy is sponsored by Everest Family Ministry in the Birmingham Metro Area. We offer freedom along with quality resources, information, activities and support to those homeschooling in Alabama. We believe that the parent has the best interests of their children at heart. We believe that the parent is the first and only teacher that a child needs. In keeping with this philosophy, we wish to be a very hands-off cover school and allow the parent to lead and guide their children in the direction and at the pace they feel is best suited to their children. We ask only for what the law requires while offering support along with quality resources to aid families in their efforts.

Jan. 21, Bham: Southeastern Outings Hike at Ruffner Mountain

10:00 a.m.


Details: Join SEO for a moderate 4-mile hike on the lovely, well-maintained trails in the 1000+-acre Ruffner Mountain Nature Preserve, one of the largest in-city nature preserves in the country. We’ll pass remnants of old iron mining and limestone quarrying operations which took place on the mountain, and we’ll have splendid views from the overlook where you can see all the way to the Miller Steam Plant on the Locust Fork River on a clear day.

Bring picnic lunch and drink. Well-behaved, carefully supervised children age 10 and up welcome.

Depart 10:00 a.m. from the Ruffner Mountain Nature Center.
