Outdoor Leadership Experience
Coming Summer 2019!
The Experience will incorporate a blend of classroom instruction and outdoor activities designed to teach life-long leadership principles and concepts. It includes a four-day hike, providing participants with first-hand leadership skills in a safe environment with skilled facilitators and Wilderness First Aid certified instructors.
Participants will be taught from a biblical worldview and challenged to apply training through real-life scenarios such as role plays, problem solving, and team building exercises.
