Positive Adventures’ Winter Excursion program offers high-energy activities while at the same time equipping students with the skills they need to be successful in the high school environment full of new pressures and added responsibilities.
The winter environment offers abundant learning opportunities for youth. While many children choose to snuggle up with their electronics, we believe that winter is the perfect time to get kids outside for some hands-on experiential education.
