7th and 8th grade: Joshua Tree Camping Trip, Oct. 25-26

During Positive Adventures’ program in Joshua Tree, participants can take advantage of multiple activities, such as rock climbing, hiking and caving. Positive Adventures’ programming not only takes advantage of Joshua Tree’s natural surroundings but also has strong elements of leadership and team-building built into the curriculum. Your learners will leave with a sense of renewed camaraderie, a deeper appreciation for their classmates, and a sense of environmental responsibility and stewardship.

Program Goals:

  1. Participants will learn a variety of new outdoor skills relating to camp and outdoor adventure activities.
  2. Learners will have an opportunity to build strong relationships with each other and the faculty.
  3. Learners will challenge themselves in both a physical and mental capacity to go beyond what they thought was possible.
  4. Through the experiential education cycle, develop and build sound judgment and leadership skills.
