Can you hear the call, the Call to Adventure? It’s calling you forward… Since the beginning of time, kids your age have left home in search of treasure or adventure, or to provide safety for their people.

But they didn’t…and here’s why: When you follow the call: You’ll make new friends—sometimes, the best friends in the world, because you share a special experience with them. You’ll see mountains, oceans, rivers, and get a chance to explore them all. People travel from all over the world to see the Olympic Peninsula!

You’ll learn so many new skills—how to cook for yourself, how to backpack, how to work together as a team…these are just a few.
You’ll get to see exactly what you can accomplish, and look back, and say, “I did that.”
You’ll learn more about yourself, what it means to be growing up, to be becoming a young man or a young woman, and about who you want to be in the world.
