What We Believe

We believe every young person deserves a chance to thrive in a supportive environment. By combining outdoor education with Christian values, we help youth develop resilience, integrity, and a sense of purpose.

Our program emphasizes environmental stewardship, teaching respect for God's creation while providing practical skills in fishing, navigation, and outdoor safety.

Through our tradition of "Baking Cookies for Charity" and other community service projects, we instill the importance of giving back and making a positive impact in the world.
