Get outside
Getting kids outdoors is a great way to leave technology behind and step into the real world.

Rafting the Ocoee River will provide an opportunity for your youth group to:
- Spend valuable time outdoors
- Be themselves

Being playful outside has a way of bringing out the best in all of us, and especially when we are having positive experiences in a group setting. On this rafting adventure, youth will feel more at ease to just be themselves and have fun with their peers. Rather than getting caught up in feelings of trying to “fit in”, your youth group will have a chance be their authentic selves and to create real bonds with one another in this experience.
