Activities

Climbing

Standup Paddleboarding (SUP)

Outdoor Wellness Series: Meditation, Yoga, & Zumba

This program is a series of activities and classes that focus on an individual skill or adventure. Goals of this program are to:

• help participants try a new lifetime activity
• create a safe and fun environment to step out of one’s comfort zone
• and help individuals overcome a fear, apprehension, or questions about the activity.

With a focus on empowering individuals to “reach a peak” that they have identified as a barrier or goal ie: trying a new activity, adaptive adventures, scholarships to camps, entry fees to races, overcoming fears, etc. The Summit Series activities will also allow for growth by increasing one’s knowledge and skills with a “series” of classes that build upon the initial base.

Park Cleanups

Environment Essentials is focused on taking care of what we use. By incorporating our trail and park cleanups into this program, we provide a connection from outdoor activity to environmental stewardship. By practicing principles like Leave No Trace, we’ll help each individual that participates in this program to understand their connection to nature and the importance of taking care of what we have. Goals of this program are to:

• teach responsible recreation
• encourage environmental stewardship
• provide environmentally friendly tools, tips, & techniques

This program is focused on making sure there are plenty of opportunities for the community to give back to the public spaces that gives so much to us.  Environment Essentials will help provide tools, tips, and techniques to help individuals minimize their impact on nature.
