Summer Programs

ULTIMATE Sessions (7 days) Ages 10-12
have it all! They are filled with exciting fun and unique experiences, composed of 5 activities: backpacking in the gorgeous Mount Rogers National Recreation area, climbing on real rock in Grayson Highlands State Park, exploring the depths of the earth by caving, rafting on the wild New River in WV and canoe/kayaking through rapids on the New River right out of our facility. This is the best way to begin an outdoor experience that will last a life time. 2011 Dates and Rates

SUPREME Sessions (7 days) Ages 12-14
are much like Ultimate sessions except that they are packed with everything bigger and more challenging.

Seekers (14 days) Ages 13-15
This is the next step in progression from the Ulitimate and Supreme sessions. Seekers is an intermediate level program even more challenging than the one week. Campers stay out in the field for longer periods, climb more challenging routes, paddle for several days on rivers, crawl through wild caves and take on more responsibility for the welfare of the group. The program will be spent backpacking, climbing, canoeing, kayaking, rafting, caving and mountain biking in the mountains of NC, VA, TN, and WV. 2011 Dates and Rates
