Thank you for your interest in returning to Northern Pines as a Wilderness Tribal Leader! After applying, you and your parent or guardian will receive an email confirming the submission of your application. Your parent will receive a note about the week you applied to serve and the person you listed as a reference; if you include your own email, you will receive a full receipt of your application. The application confirmation does not mean you will or won't be a Wilderness Tribal Leader, just that we received your application. We will review applications and followup in March. Please contact us at connect@npines.org if you have any questions.
