Adventure Education at Lion's Ridge

Today my two boys experienced a great outdoor school activity at Lion's Ridge.  They learned how to snowshoe and then a hands-on study of the snow pack and learn how avalanches can develop.  I highly recommend you consider Lion's Ridge for your summer camp activities.  Here's a bit about the camp and then three programs that sound very interesting. 

Lion's Ridge

Wilderness places, adventure challenges, and strong relationships are three of the best environments for the unbounded growth of kids, teens, young adults, and adults. Lion's Ridge programs creatively draw on adventure activities and trust in the active hand of our Creator. With these two tools we seek to grow people from interested observers to passionately engaged servants.

At Lion's Ridge we will visit places untouched, meet challenges of the unknown, and together grow with the joy of the unfinished. Let's go outside!
