ADULT LEADER TREKS
Stop. Close your eyes, and imagine the sounds of a high adventure Scouting experience, but without Scouts. Ahhh, sounds nice, right? What if you could go on a trek, but also have some additional comforts available that you've earned as an adult leader? Now we've got your attention....
Due to the overwhelming success of our Adult Leader Treks in October 2023 and 2024, we will be annually offering this amazing experience to registered leaders! Participants need to be 21 years old to join this provisional crew.
