“Wonderful staff—insightful, mature, fun, and, above all, loving with dedication to lead teens to real life challenges.”
“Outward Bound is extremely professional, well run and organized. It is a considerate and compassionate program. A shining light on shadows. Every person was available, knowledgeable, and offered hope. Whatever comes or doesn’t come of this for us, I will strongly recommend it and never forget what it gave to me and my son. Thank you!”
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping us reach the plateau before the summit. Still a climb ahead of us, but we can now see the route to the top. Thanks for pushing all of us. Thanks for all you did for our son. I don’t think he will ever forget this…”
“Thank you, thank you, thank you. You have given us a new beginning. Sometimes as a parent you can teach and try with your kids but you are the ones they probably won’t listen to. They are distracted by so many other influences. Thanks for reinforcing me in a basic and real way. You offer a positive perspective. You offer change.”
“It was refreshing to have interactions with staff that had an amazing clarity about what they were doing. I don’t think we could have asked for better leadership that these two instructors. The empowerment and ownership my daughter accomplished in only 20+ days is unbelievable and nothing short of a miracle. I can breathe again.”
“It is clear that a great deal of time and effort has gone into developing this course. I was not expecting it to be as clearly helpful to us as I do believe it has been. If it makes even a part of the difference in our relationship with our son as well as contributing to his development in the ways I think it will, I will be forever grateful. Thank you.”
“I’m thrilled with the program—my son’s smile says it all. He is fit physically and mentally to meet the challenges ahead. We, as his parents, are better equipped and ready too.”
“The lessons taught were life-changing. They are subtle, however, understandable. You were able to get some messages across that we, as parents, might not have been able to impart.”
“I appreciated the high standards and expectations set for both students and parents, the honest communication from instructors, and—perhaps above all else—the humor.”
“This is no hit or miss program. Obviously it is the product of much research and modification of previous program experience.”
