Tired of seeing your kids glued to their screens all summer?


Looking for a way to get them outdoors, building confidence, making friends, and learning valuable skills — without it feeling like another boring camp?


Welcome to Lake Life Youth Adventures — an unforgettable summer experience on the water!


Our three-level program gives kids and teens the opportunity to enjoy Minnesota’s lakes the way they’re meant to be enjoyed — by getting outside, getting active, and gaining real-world boating experience while having the time of their lives.

Our Summer Sessions

Lakeville, Minnesota, School District 194

Course #1: Get Your Feet Wet 🌊

Start here! Kids enjoy a fun introduction to pontoons, jet skiing, boating, and beach activities in a safe and relaxed setting.


Course #2: Learn and Earn 🚤

For youth ages 12 and up! This interactive on-the-water course helps them earn their watercraft license — all while having a blast on the lake.


Course #3: Basic Boating Skills 

Now they're ready to take the wheel! Licensed youth step up to hands-on learning with pontoons, jet skis, and boats, gaining real-world skills in boating safety, navigation, and leadership.

Why Lake Life Youth Adventures?

The Problem:

  • Kids spend too much time indoors glued to electronics.
  • Many teens lack motivation for real-world challenges.
  • “Online friends” often replace real human connections.
  • Parents don’t want their teens cooped up alone all summer.
  • Teens don't want to hang out with parents 24/7 — but they also don’t want to feel babysat.


The Solution:

  • Phone-friendly fun: Snap photos, create TikToks, and capture unforgettable memories (yes, we encourage it!).
  • Unconscious exercise: Beach games, water sports, and boating activities get kids moving — without feeling like a workout.
  • Real friendships: Bring a buddy or make new friends on the water.
  • Skill building: Learn boating skills that create confidence and responsibility — not just another “summer hobby.”
  • Freedom and growth: Independence without being left home alone — and a summer they'll actually thank you for.

Make This Summer the One They’ll Always Remember.
