WILDERNESS LEADER INTERNSHIP

Our Wilderness Leader Internship (WLI) is an intensive experience in wilderness leadership that will enable you to disciple, equip and empower others in the wilderness classroom. This internship will allow you to grow and be formed as you prepare to intentionally invest yourself in others.

custom experiences

We design and lead custom programs for leadership teams, church groups, team experiences, camps, schools, gap year programs and groups like yours! We would love to partner with you.

WHAT STUDENTS SAY

It was challenging to try new things and step outside of my comfort zone, but it was cool to push myself and see how strong I actually am and how much I can actually do.

2022 ACT FIVE

I've never seen a group of teenagers get so close, so fast, like the students did on this wilderness trip.

2022 PARTNER
PROGRAM LEADER

God really used this experience to shift my perspective, and it's making me anticipate more alone time with Him.

2023 WOMEN'S
CANOE TRIP

I learned that what I am good at, or not good at, doesn't define me; instead what defines who I am is that I am a Child of God.

paddle-a-thon

In June 2024, we hosted our second annual Paddle-a-Thon Fundraising Event! Over 50 participants enjoyed an adventurous day of paddling down southern Ontario’s Grand River. Participants raised funds to make transformational wilderness experiences possible for those requiring financial assistance.

ANNUAL fall banquet

In November 2024, we hosted our Fall Banquet & 10-Year Celebration. Guests enjoyed gathering as a community and hearing about the positive impact in our students' lives over the past 10 years. Our banquet was a night of gratitude and celebration, and we are hopeful for the ways God will use this banquet to expand ministry in the year ahead.
