Islanders, one of Camp Orkila’s oldest and most historic programs now has the full team enrolled. The pic on the left is of the 2009 Group. This three-week expedition which began decades ago, in seafaring canoes, now tours the San Juan and Gulf Islands in fiberglass kayaks. Throughout this 22-day expedition high school participants build on their paddling skills, expedition knowledge, and outdoor leadership experience. Also, there's footage at the bottom of this post you can check out to see Camp Orkila welcome the Islanders home on their final day.
For those of you interested in outdoor adventure and exploring the different islands with a group of your peers, Teen Expeditions and Leadership Programs could be a wonderful path for you… As a long time alumnus of the program, I know it was for me…
A friendly reminder: If an expedition or leadership program is something you would like to pursue we have spots open in biking, sailing and kayaking programs for 7-12 graders. However, unlike traditional camp programs, teen programs have limited availability and multiple programs have already filled, so if these are paths you would like to explore this summer, I would recommended signing up sooner than later.
Now have a look at the moment from last summer if you'd like, when the 2009 Islanders returned from their epic journey!
