Join us on a 3-7 day camping trip to a Texas State Park and explore the outdoors with us. Activities include at least two of the following: Camping, Hiking, Backpacking, Fishing, Canoeing, Kayaking and Rock Climbing, Bouldering, and much more. E ach activity provides "challenge" and encourages youth to stretch themselves beyond their self-imposed limits through facing that challenge. These activities encourage the evolution of judgment, personal responsibility, and awareness of group needs. The trip includes reflection, evaluation and goal review to help the youth derive meaning from what they have experienced and how the experiences apply to their lives.
