As winter approaches, we're reminiscing about those sunny summer days! ☀️ Looking back at another incredible season of our Summer Outdoor Discovery Program with L.L.Bean, we're reminded of all the adventures our Club kids enjoyed—from kayaking and hiking to archery. Nature became their classroom, filled with unforgettable experiences and new discoveries. 🌲🏞️🚣♀️ This partnership is about more than outdoor fun—it’s about building confidence, forming friendships, and nurturing social-emotional growth in our youth. Through these experiences, young people are finding new passions and strengthening their connection to nature. 🌎💚 The impact? In 2024 alone, over 180 Club kids across five Northeast Clubs experienced these life-changing activities! Three years strong, and we continue to grow. Together, we're fostering a generation of resilient, nature-loving leaders and opening doors to endless possibilities. Here's to many more seasons of exploration and growth!
