Welcome Adventurers!!!

Hello!  My name is AJ and I will be your Adventure Host this summer.  It is so nice to meet you and I cannot wait to meet you in person!  Are you ready for an incredible adventure?  I hope so because this will be a summer that you will never forget.  My friends and I cannot wait to show you the magical wonderland that is the Oregon Coast while teaching you some of the most important information you could ever possibly know!  We are already working hard to make sure that you have a fabulous and successful experience with us.  Trust me, you are in excellent hands.  So let me tell you a little about what to expect.

First, the whole point of this experience is for you to have a wonderful time.  You will also learn some incredibly valuable information, feel really good about yourself, and bond with your fellow travelers.  You can check out our daily itineraries to get a better idea of what our days will look like, and you can always reach out to me with any questions that you might have.  You are in for a good time, and I cannot wait for us to embark on this adventure together.  Please make sure to check-out the Pre-Adventure Checklist to make sure you are doing everything you can to be ready. 

Also, I want to put your worries and mind at ease about the vibe on our trip.  You are under our care. We already think you are wonderful.  We expect you will join us with an open heart and an open mind. We will make sure you have a good time and we will also expect you to follow a few principles and requirements as well.  This is only to the benefit and safety of you and your fellow travelers.  Also, everything that we expect and require of you is ultimately only for your benefit. With our guidance, you are going to connect with many beautiful parts of yourself and others.  One of the best parts of your adventure is that you are sharing it with others. That is something to very much look forward to. You will meet people who are similar to you and people who are very different than you.  No matter what, you will be traveling in a safe environment that loves and supports you, and you are only asked to offer the same.  There will be no labels, no cliques, no judgment, no shame, no guilt, just unconditional love, understanding, and kindness.  You will also learn about gratitude and how powerful it is to be able to truly value and appreciate everything in your life.  You will learn how much valuable information there is in our differences and understanding different perspectives.

I will personally greet you upon your arrival and once the entire group is together we will embark on our adventure!  We will travel to our campsite which will be our home base for the entire time.  You will always have access to all of your belongings with the exception of when we leave camp for day adventures.  All of the travelers will be camping in a large lodge-style tent, and fear not, we have full bathrooms and you will be able to shower every day.  We are going to have a classic camping experience with all of the basic amenities in a very safe location. There will also be plenty of opportunities for laundry and we will never be far from all of the perks of civilization, including stores, doctors, and hospitals.  Also, don’t worry, there is cell service and you will have opportunities to use your cell phone to check in with your parents.  There will be plenty of fresh drinking water (not purified) and lots of delicious healthy food that you are going to learn how to cook.  We will all be cooking together and all meals will be healthy and yummy.  Expect to try new things and enjoy old favorites. Finally, get ready because are going to partake in so many epic activities and you are going to learn from some truly special human beings.  I wouldn’t waste your time. You are going to leave camp feeling more blissful, at-ease, and realized that you ever have before. 

I can’t wait to meet you and take you on an adventure for your life!
