OUTDOOR SPORTS

Exposure to the vast outdoors is an effective reboot for high school and college students to deal with academics, relationships, and self-realization stresses. Nature provides a calming antidote to the hi-tech fast lane, lessening stress, heightening mental acuity, and boosting emotional toughness. Group hikes, outdoor retreats, or even casual time spent outdoors foster real connections, enabling teamwork and vulnerability that classroom or online learning far too often fails to provide. It allows students as well as leadership to experience God's majesty outdoors. Shared experience instills a sense of camaraderie, reminding students they are not alone—and that assistance, both from nature and from each other, is always within arm's reach.
