Extreme Adventure offers the opportunity for young men and women from 14 - 17 years of age, to plan and participate in one or more of a variety of short-term adventure-based activities. The types and duration of adventures are limited only by the imagination and skills of the participants and leaders.
Some typical adventures include hiking expeditions along historic trails; cycling tours; water-based trips; adventure racing; travel to other provinces or countries; attending major events like jamborees; long-term camping excursions; or travelling to other countries to participate in humanitarian projects.
Last year over 200 youth took part in Extreme Adventure in the West and Ontario.
