If so, please read on about First Descents!! We have 15 week long programs
running from April to September and we need your help in finding
participants!!
First Descents programs are all about having fun, getting outside, and
pushing your limits through kayaking, rock climbing and other outdoor
activities. Our camps are structured and designed with you in mind. There's
no need to have kayaking or climbing experience. We know your body has been
through a lot - we don't have any requirements for fitness. We encourage you
to challenge yourself, but won't push you past your capabilities. Our
programs are free to all who are accepted. All you need to bring is what
you'd typically pack for a trip. First Descents has all the gear and
necessary equipment to keep you safe, warm and relatively dry. We'll provide
everything you need and teach you the skills, you just show up! Your week at
camp will be full of activity but you'll have plenty of time to relax too.
When we're not on the river or climbing, we hang out, hike, play volleyball,
listen to music, etc. You'll get to know the other participants well!
Thanks in advance for your help. If you have any questions feel free to
email or call me. See at the firstdescents.org about the FD program and
perfect participant. Please forward this email on to anyone you think may
benefit from this amazing experience.
