Older Girls Group
Climbing Day-Trip (Outdoors) – April 6th
An exciting day of climbing outdoors. Girls will be able to continue to develop their skills bouldering, climbing and belaying. There will also be some fun games and environmental activities to do as the groups take turns on the rock. (Younger girls will also join in on this trip)
Mini Backpacking Adventure – May 4 & 5th
The Older Girls will get out for a real back country experience. This trip is designed for these young ladies to be successful. For many of them it will be their very first backpacking adventure!
They will backpack a short distance in to set up camp and from there do a day-hike to explore. This trip will help get the girls ready for the upcoming summer trip and they will have plenty of opportunity to put a lot of their outdoor skills to the test!
Canoe Workshop day trip – May 11th
A fun day at Lake James learning and practicing canoe strokes, rescues and of course lots of fun swimming and playing. This is the perfect setting for these girls to get good at paddling!
Younger Boys Group
Climbing Trip (day trip) – March 23rd
A great opportunity for the boys to get outdoors and put their climbing skills to the test. This will be a day trip to a local crag and the boys will be able to pick up where they left off from their climbing gym experience. Climbing, belaying and rappelling are all options!
Red Barn Adventure: April 27 & 28th
This trip has become really popular with this age-group. We head up onto the AT and backpack in a short distance to the Red Barn Shelter. We set up camp there and then head out to explore the balds above tree line along the AT. Great trip for these boys to develop their camping skills in all ways, from cooking, to tents, navigation and working together!
