Overnight Retreats
Overnight retreats offer life-changing opportunities for groups of students to explore outdoor destinations near and far. Students become immersed in a new environment, discover their character & strengths in unique ways, and build lasting bonds with their peers and teachers that carry over to the classroom.
Give your students the opportunity to learn about the natural world, try new things, and gain independence with an overnight outdoor education experience.
Day Programs
We also offer day programming for clients on school campuses, ropes courses, or at parks and natural spaces nearby. This can be a memorable experience for students to come together in new ways, strengthen their bond as a class, and expand their relationships with each other. These programs can be developed for single or multiple days, and focus on team building, environmental education, adventure activities, & more.
Wilderness Programs
Is your school community ready to endure challenge and growth together in a rugged environment? Our wilderness programs in breathtaking backcountry settings allow groups of students to extend themselves outside their comfort zones and truly understand what it means to develop a working team dynamic. These “Expedition Style” trips enable student participants, chaperones, and Positive Adventures field staff to all contribute to the well-being of the entire group and actively participate in common duties. Our field staff lead by example and support students as they step into exciting new leadership roles each day.
