Mission
To provide youth opportunities to explore the natural world, giving them outdoor experiences that will sustain and enrich their physical and mental well-being throughout their lives.
Program accomplishments
- Funded under contract with our affiliated organization (Pathways to Learning), we completed another year of accomplishments. We successfully partnered with T.R.A.C. (a nonprofit helping foster and adoptive children) to develop and deliver foster and adoptive childrens camps. These impactful, resilience-building camps included challenge course activities, archery, assisted learning, and other fun activities. In addition, we hosted camps helping children with family members affected by cancer and provided sessions to help children deal with trauma impacted by cancer. We also hosted camps serving families affected by blood disorders. We hosted and led camps teaching STEM for title 1 schools, which help underserved and underprivileged children. The addition of an experienced camp administrative professional as President introduced substantial improvements to our staff training, risk management, program development, operations, customer service, property improvements, and other enhancements to both our facilities and the participant experience.Expenses $867,885 · revenue $876,535
