Last month, our intrepid Education Manager Corey headed to New Jersey for a intensive backpacking training led by the Appalachian Mountain Club's Youth Opportunities Program.

Grant Foundation, we will be camping next year with our youth, and Corey's training was the first step in getting us ready for the wilds!
