The Adventure Program
In 1984, the Adventure Program was born out of the city's Nature Program. Over the years the goal has always been to provide instructional opportunities in a wide range of outdoor adventure activities. Activities include kayaking, canoeing, mountain biking, climbing, backpacking, sailing, whitewater rafting, and many others. These activities are provided to youth and adults through year-round programs, summer camps, special events, trips, clinics, and customized programs. We hope you find something of interest and join us for an adventure soon.
