Adventure Bound Teen Trips

Adventure Bound Teen Trips provide an elevated Camp Jordan experience for older campers. Each of three trips offered this summer will last one week. Participants will learn a number of skills including but not limited to: wilderness survival, land navigation, group development, leadership, nutrition, self reliance, cognitive strategies, and personal reflection.

All trips will be led by a Wilderness First Responder and an Outdoor Specialist. The trips have been developed with the consultation of Eric C. Taylor, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and recognized leader in the fields of experiential learning, leadership development, and adventure based challenge. He will be working with Camp Jordan and its trip leaders to ensure that this program achieves its goals, beyond providing a safe and fun experience.
