Outdoor Adventure Trips

 

Outdoor Adventure Trips

For 2010 we have added three brand new adventure trips:
Island Adventure - Join us on a week-long adventure as we camp on Raquette Lake in the Adirondacks.

Southeast Adventures -
Spend two weeks with us as we camp and travel through the southeast. During the trip, campers will raft, rock climb, hike, explore caves, and surf in the Atlantic Ocean.

Leadership Adventure Program -
16 to 17 years old - This weeklong backpacking and caving trip will focus on developing leadership skills through teambuilding, goal setting and overcoming challenges.  

Our other three trips were past favorites of the program:
Northeast Adventures - Traveling on the open road we visit destinations such as the Herkimer Diamond Mines, and Clarksville Cave in Schoharie County.

Vertical Ventures -
Beginner and experienced climbers will enjoy three days of learning new skills and completing challenges while climbing in the Adirondack Mountains.  

Hudson Valley and Pocono Adventure -
This trip is designed for the greenhorn adventurer. The activities are all local to the tri-state area. Campers raft the Lehigh River in Pennsylvania, hike waterfalls in the Poconos, and spend a day rock climbing in New Paltz.
