Once a year, our program brings us on a week long training trip to help us hone our skills as leaders. Throughout the school year we lead our university’s community on outdoor excursions, and this annual trip is one of the many ways we learn and grow.

All of our leaders are Wilderness First Responder certified, trained in conflict management, and have 1,500 outdoor volunteer hours. Our program is strictly student-lead, as they research and prepare for every trip we provide. The leaders are heavily trained and put several hours into the program every week, but they are college students first, who still have to maintain their GPAs and pay tuition.

Our spring break is given to this training trip, but not all leaders are able to pay for it. Every little amount counts and all is greatly appreciated!
