Help our students from Leaders High School experience the transformative beauty of the outdoors by checking out our Go Fund Me: https://www.gofundme.com/c9z2nx-backcountry-camping-for-nyc-youth
From May 6th to May 10th, our entire school will experience our Intensives Week where their learning will take place outside of the classroom. The 25 students on this trip chose 3 days of backcountry hiking and camping along 16 scenic miles of the AppalachianTrail.
The students are eager to learn how to use a camping stove to cook their own food, pitch a tent, read trail maps, filter water, and carry all their gear and supplies on their backs over mountains and streams
