Tales from the Trails - Thankfulness

WE INVITE YOU to enjoy a quarterly account of when the hard edges of city life meet the grit of the outdoors. Follow along as we share vignettes of the personal impact Adventure Crew makes on the lives of local teens.

In our first edition we talk THANKFULNESS (a big word this time of year) and
what it means to our students.

We sat down with some Adventure Crew teens to discuss how they feel when they take time to immerse themselves in the outdoors. Read on to see what time in nature can mean to a city kid.

When I’m out in nature, I’m thankful for…

The quiet.

Bees. Trees. Volunteers.

Peace. Fresh air.
The wilderness.

When I’m with Adventure Crew,

I’m thankful for…

Feeling loved.

Visiting unfamiliar places.
Being out of the house. Feeling free.

I’m happiest outside when I’m…

Away from my phone.
Running around.
Having fun with friends.

With Adventure Crew.
