Youth Programs

providing immersive experiences in nature for youth for more than 30 years

The past three decades have offered us an opportunity to refine our programming structure to meet the needs of youth participants. Our scaffolded approach to programs helps introduce youth to nature slowly. Through this program model, we start youth off by exploring the front country through a day hike and overnight camping trip. Then, youth end their BCM experience through our flagship week-long expedition in the backcountry through a backpacking or canoeing trip.
