Bike rides, Beach & Pool days, RC Racing, Paintball Day, Amusement Park, Sports Day, Visits to State Parks, Rock Climbing, just to name a few. The goal of these trips is to expose youths to people, places, or things outside their current environment. These trips also help to build a bond between youth and staff.
