Thompson Island Outward Bound - GIRLS AGES 12-13
Many people think courage means physical bravery; at Outward Bound we believe courage is about what is in your heart, from facing your fears to speaking up for what you believe in. On a Connecting with Courage (CWC) expedition, you will focus on physical, mental and emotional skills while spending 10 or 12 days in the Boston Harbor Islands National Park Area.
You’ll take an active role in learning both personal and team-based sailing or sea-kayaking skills such as navigation, technical skills, tides, wind reading and knot tying, and study the ecology and history of the Harbor Islands. While learning to live outside, you will form friendships, build self-confidence, independence, and a powerful sense of accomplishment. This course will focus on leadership and teamwork, while allowing you to speak your mind and express yourself. Course groups will typically consist of 10 students and two instructors.
