Description

Offers outdoor programs designed for youth groups.  Programs are built in collaboration with group leaders to meet the educational goals of the group.  Offers single-day experiences, though most groups schedule multiple days over the course of a season or year to provide multiple outdoor experiences for their youth, each experience building on the other. Broken into 1 hour or ½ hour activity blocks depending on the age group, the curriculum is designed to match the goals of the visiting group and impart on the youth participants a desire to explore and conserve the outdoors.  Provides a flexible, hands-on curriculum teaches safety and appreciation for the environment.  Educates participants in skills applicable to almost anything youth will do for the rest of their lives: communication, planning, overcoming obstacles, and team-work.   Activities include rock climbing (indoors or outdoors, weather-dependent), rappelling (ages 10+; must be combined with rock climbing), belaying (ages 13+; must be combined with rock climbing, outdoor cooking), navigation, First Aid, Leave No Trace & 10 Essentials.
